Council looks again at Trail widening

A $16.8 million expansion as planned, following city prove the project. 7 AP" Alberta Transport rg go 
of the St. Albert Trail to six council’s decison Monday Noting that part accep- ahead with detailed plans and 


approve its 90 per cent share 
of the funding, Ken Foster of 
the Grimble Consulting 
-Group, told council that, ‘I 
couldn’t say for sure but 1980 
could be out of the question 
now.” 

‘Now’ meant after coun- 
scil’s decision to approve 
plans for the expansion with 
the exception of proposed 
service roads and access 
|points along the Trail from 
Gate Avenue to the Sir 
Winston Churchill overpass. 

“This is the one area (of 
the expansion) where we real- 
ly don’t have all the 
answers,’’ said Alderman 
Roger Ayotte, in voting to 
have Grimble Consultants 
and city staff study further 
service road access alter- 
natives. 

Alderman Liesbeth Bak- 
ker, who was the first to 
argue against the proposed 
‘service roads in Mr. Foster's 
plarfs, said the present design 
favors some commercial 
developments along the Trail 
and ignores others. 

By providing highway ac- 
cess for only some businesses, 
and building a service road 
especially for the Touch Inn, 
Mrs. Bakker said council was 
‘‘bending too far over 
backwards.”’ Better designs 
and ones that are fair to 
everyone involved, are possi- 
ble, she said. 

In addition to further study 
of service roads, council will 
also be taking a second look 
at the plans for noise preven- 
tion along the east side of the 
Trail from Sturgeon Road to 
the Sir Winston Churchill 
overpass. 

An earthen berm and con- 
crete wall combination had 
been proposed, but the 
aldermen agreed that a solid 
14-foot wall might be better 
because less land would be 
needed,

At least two aldermen ob- 
jected to even partially ap- 
proving the highway expan- 
sion plans. ‘‘You’re buying a 
pig in a poke,” said Alder- 
man Rod Throndson, argu- 


ing that by approving the ex- 
pansion with unknown 
changes to come later, coun- 
cil was committing itself to 
something it wasn’t sure of 
‘yet. 


CONCENTRATE ON 
WEST BYPASS 


Mr. Ayotte also questioned 
| whether any highway expan- 
sion is even needed. ‘*The 
‘ province is playing a cat and 
mouse game with us,” he 
said, by refusing to commit 
itself to a westerly bypass, to 
an expansion of the Trail, or 
to construction on 149 and 
156 Streets. 


ALD. BAKKER 
“Better designs 
are possible...” 


It would be better for St. 
Albert, he said, to 
“concentrate its efforts’’ on 
one project, and get Alberta 
Transport to start building 
something, and preferably a 
westerly bypass, so that a 
minimum amount of disrup- 
tion occurs in St. Albert. Par- 
tial widening of the Trail and 
a median down ‘the centre 
might satisfy everyone’s 
needs, he said. 

At last week’s council 
meeting St. Albert’s former 
mayor, Ray Gibbon, also 
argued that the city’s main 
priorities should be a bypass, 
bridges and not expansion of 
the Trail.

“To remove something

Dvorack told the aldermen. 
She said children from area

schools have all used the rink 


“There is just no other 
recreational activity for the

; CAN WE TAKE litte Aes 
at city hall ONE 


SOMEONE 


City council seems to be 
spending a lot of time in the 
dark lately and it looks like 
it’s Capital Cable Televi- 
sion’s fault. 

Capital Cable’s Sandra 
Whitlow says it was an 
overloaded circuit Monday 
night, partly due to their 
television camera, that led-to 
three power failures during 
the council meeting. 

Each of the blackouts at 
the city hall annex only lasted 
a couple of minutes until 
Capital Cable staff corrected 
the problem, but the third 
failure ‘‘blew a resistor,”’ 
says Ms. Whitlow, forcing 
the station to finish the 
broadcast with only sound 
and no picture. 

Ms. Whitlow says the 
power overload, which also 
led to three failures during 
council’s meeting a week ago, 
results from the television 


cameras and lights and the 
library’s services all con- 
nected to the same power 
source. 

**When someone plugs in a 
tea kettle or starts up the 
copier, that means we go 
(out),”’ she said. ‘‘Obviously 
it’s crazy.”’ 

One solution they’re look- 
ing at, she said, is running 
Capital Cable’s power lines 
from another source than the 
library’s, possibly from city 
hall itself. 

Meanwhile, during Mon- 
day night’s meeting the 
power failures didn’t even 
lead the aldermen to pause in 
their discussions. Emergency 
lighting immediately came 
on, and they weren’t even left 
groping in the dark. Ap- 
parently, council’s verbal 
powers are unrelated to 
anything coming out of wall 
outlets.

a 


Liberal leader sad at cookie jar raid 


Alberta Liberal Leader 
Nick Taylor when speaking 
this weekend in Barrhead, 
said he is not surprised that 
the Alberta Conservative 
government voted themselves 
a 47 percent raise in salaries, 
plus other fringe benefits, but 
he is disappointed that the 
opposition N.D.P. and 
Social Credit M.L.A.’s also 
went ‘‘meekly along’’. 

The Alberta Liberal 


the gazette 
reflects 


It's a sad state of affairs when Alderman Rod 


Leader charges it is both 
sanctamonious and hyper- 
critical for the government 
M.L.A.’s to ask Alberta 
citizens to restrict their 
demands to an increase of 7 
percent, then vote themselves 
“this huge pat on the back’’. 

“I am disappointed and 
saddened that our N.D.P. 
and Socred M.L.A.’s should 
join the government huge 
jority in this raid of the 


taxpayers cookie jar.”’ 

Mr. Taylor charged last 
week that Premier Lougheed 
is selling Alberta short by 
asking for world prices in 
cash for Alberta oil rather 
than taking a portion in cash 
and the rest in changes in the 
Constitution and transporta- 
tion system plus an option to 
buy back oil and gas at less 
than world prices from the

to 149-156 Street. This is council’s number 


Canadian frontiers as they 
come on stream over the next 
20-30 years (a swap). 

Taylor said that any OPEC 
country can tell the Premier 
that extra dollars are of little 
use as their value erodes so 
rapidly and this is doubly true 
in Alberta where we already 
have 5 billion dollars that the 
Premier and his cabinet can- 
not think of any use for.”’ 


Throndson tells council it is buying a “Pig ina 
Poke” in the matter of a consultant's plan for 
the widening of St. Albert Trail through the cen- 
tre of St. Albert. After all, Alderman Throndson 
was a member of St. Albert’s Steering Commit- 
tee on Transportation and has been involved in 
the planning for years. If he feels that strongly, 
why hasn't he spoken out before! Could it be he 
has designs on running for mayor next year and 
is just now finding out that the people of St. 
Albert don't want their town split in two. Former 
Mayor Ray Gibbon’s remarks last week to coun- 
cil, that he and a great number of St. Albert 
residents are NOT convinced that a six-lane 
speedway through our city is the way to go, 
must have gotten through to Alderman Thrond- 
son. 


“ONE” priority and the new multi-million dollar 
road is primarily designed to serve Campbell 
Warehouse Park, including the proposed new 
900,000 square foot Alberta Liquor Control 
Board Warehouse. 


As was rightly pointed out to council at the 
public hearing last week, the widening of St. 
Albert Trail should be a low priority for obvious 
reasons. And council should again get a com- 
mitment date from the Provincial Government 
for a WEST BYPASS that will divert traffic away 
from the centre of our city. Edmonton's portion 
of the WEST BYPASS is now almost completed. 
Only the underpass of CN rail lines at 170 Street 
and 118 Avenue remain to be completed. 


It should also be remembered by council that 
Genstar’s 1900 acre annexation to the north- 
west will form part of St. Albert on January 1, 
1980 and the BYPASS should be in place before 
this development housing nearly 25,000 people 
is completed. 


Fact of the matter is, council of 1974-77 which 
Included Throndson, committed itself to widen- 
ing the Trail and furthermore authorized Grim- 
ble and Associates to bring in recommenda- 
tions on how to do It. According to Ken Foster, 
of Grimble, their firm has a tentative commit- 
ment from Alberta Transportation to proceed 
immediately if proposed plan gets council's ap- 


Also amazing to many St. Albert residents is 
council’s non-action towards upgrading and 


proval. surfacing 184 Street south of Grandin Village. 
This road could take a lot of traffic from St. 
WHO'S RUNNING THE SHOW? Albert to Highway 16 and Edmonton, and work 


should be underway now. 
Alderman Throndson, and for that matter all 


members of council, should certainly be aware 
that Alberta Transportation is presently taking 
land owners to expropriation for “Right of Way” 


Some re-thinking by council of a 6-8 lane cor- 
ridor through the centre of St. Albert may be im- 
mensely useful in avoiding a costly error.

Land Use bylaw stalled 


Approval of St. Albert’s 
Land Use Bylaw, the docu- 
ment that will control all land 


in the city, has reached 
another snag. 
City council agreed vt 


Monday night’s meeting that 
there are still too many minor 
problems to be worked out at 
this time and voted to refer 
the proposed bylaw back to 
staff for further study and 
revision. 


City Hall 
This Week 


Mayor Ron Harvey noted 
that the city has been prepar- 
ing the bylaw for almost eight 
months now and it’s “rather 
distressful to have further 
delays.’” 

The document must be in 
effect, according to proyin- 


are still on some city 
aldermen’s minds. 

At Tuesday’s council 
meeting, alderman Liesbeth 
Bakker asked what role St. 
Albert was taking in helping 
the thousands of unfortunate 
outcasts. 

Mayor Ron Harvey said 
the city’s role was largely one 
of helping outside groups, 
like churches and private 
organizations, in whatever 
way it could to help settle the 
boat people. 

Alderman Rod Throndson 
noted that the city’s churches 
have done a ‘‘tremendous 
job”’ in this area, making the 
role of council itself much 
easier. 

Mrs. Bakker still question- 
ed whether the elected of- 
ficials were doing enough, 
and suggested that in the 
future the alderman may wish 
to consider an advertising 
campaign to get more St. 


cial law, by April 1, 1980. Albert residents committed to 
the boat people cause.

A shortage of space has 
forced the city into storing 
materials from last summer’s 
Alberta Summer Games and 
extensive records from the 
last few years in several loca- 
tions: the Public Works yard, 
the Sturgeon Pump House 
and the Akinsdale Arena. 

To alleviate the problem 
and centralize the materials, 
city council agreed Tuesday 
night to rent 2,700 square feet 
of warehouse space in Riel 
Industrial Park at a cost of 
$24,300 over three years.

COUNCIL REJECTS 
MISSION APARTMENT 
COMPLEX 


A bid to build a six-unit 
apartment complex at 104 - 
106 Mission Ave. failed at 
Monday night’s city council 
meeting. 

The aldermen endorsed a 
decision by the Municipal 
Planning Commission to re- 
ject the development pro- 
posal from Mourne Con- 
struction Ltd. on the grounds 
that an apartment building in 
the area would be unsuitable. 

Minimum lot re- 
quirements, as well as 
minimum lot frontage and 
minimum ~ parking re- 
quirements according to the 
proposed Land Use Bylaw 
were all inadequate, accor-

Important 
Prairie Forts 


By (Mrs.) F. Pitre-Lefebvre 
Part 11, Chapter 2 


Before the era of the fur trade the prairies had been a vast 
undistrubed frontier. The Indian tribes lived and hunted in 
their fashion, warring tribe against tribe, stopping as was 
their custom to replenish their foodstuff, clothing and ten- 
ding to their cultural ceremonies. The use of nature as their 
storehouse was methodical and scientific, and their culture 
was the strong link which wove their existence into a 
lifestyle which answered their needs from birth to the grave. 

During and after the reign of France, coureurs-de-bois 
such as Groseilliers and Radisson, Lagimodiere and Albert 
Lacombe’s uncle had gone as far as Lake Winnipeg. They 
left from Montreal and travelled the lakes and rivers, later 
pushing on up to Lake Athabaska, specifically to Fort 
Chipewyan. Before the British conquest, France’s authority 
extended to the central parts of Manitoba, Saskatchewan 
and Alberta. 

Each trip by the Canadian explorer Pierre Gauthier de la 
Verendrye and his sons saw fifty French Canadians accom- 
pany him, including a priest, These men often stayed or 
returned later to marry Indian maidens, remaining to 
populate the western plains with the new people of Canada, 
the brave and hardy Metis. 

Forts in Manitoba, after the establishment of strings of 
such enclaves used for commerce and protection appeared 
across Eastern Canada, were successful and warranted such 
buildings up the Pacific Ocean. Their counterparts 
flourished in the United States as well, thus the continent of 
North America was criss-crossed by a network of guarded

centres. 

Fort Edmonton & Fort Augustus, were established 
near the mouth of the Sturgeon River in the year 1795 well 
after Francois LaVerendrye discovered the N. Saskat- 
chewan River in 1741. Fort Rocky Mt. House was con- 
structed in 1799, These and many other western forts 
became the rendez-vous for Indians and Metis alike, as was 
the case with Fort Route (now the City of Winnipeg), and

effects of supply and demand and the repercussions were 
being felt in each teepee, each tent and every humble log 
cabin. Poverty, a lack of supplies during long winter mon- 
ths, illness and avarice were part of the negative impact 
with few measures available to counter them. Alcohol 
became payment for furs in some cases and alcoholism lead 
to unruly behavior, Delegates and petitions were sent to

missionaries to reinforce the moral fibre of the western 
pioneers,

was heard from a Mission Park resident that the 
City of St. Albert rebuild the Mission rinks, 
which were recently torn down due to their poor 
state of health. 

During discussion of the subject, Alderman 
Margaret Smith made a statement which |, and 
others at this newspaper, consider quite ig- 
noranit. 

Smith said that since St. Albert has a second 
covered rink (Akinsdale Arena) the use of the 
outdoor rinks in this city has been reduced, 
making a need of outdoor rinks less necessary. 

My good alderman Smith ... obviously, you do 
not know how to skate! Obviously you don’t

“I went to Europe but I hated it.It's too 
old!”’ 
A Canadian Teen 


By Victoria Knight 
in the.1960s, the wonderful guys who brought 
you the open classroom, New Math and the 
teacher-as-pal really excelled themselves. 
Their most notable achievement was the near- 
elimination of the classical education. Latin 
and Greek are irrelevant to modern curricula, 
proclaimed the educators. (Perhaps they found 
classical discipline too intimidating. Discipline 
holds little attraction for those who favour per- 
missiveness.) Had our educators heeded the 
first of the above quotations, we might not be 
dealing with the ignorance revealed in the se- 
cond. 

Taken in the context of history, the failure to 
teach the classics is an act of mind-boggling 
gall. Latin and Greek have survived intact 
through the ages, bringing to each generation a 
repository of history and culture. The survival of 
these ancient languages has been traditionally 
entrusted to teachers, who until now have prov- 
ed worthy of the trust .Perhaps the preservation 
of our western heritage is not included in union 
job descriptions. Or did moral responsibility go 
out when the teachers’ unions came in? 

Whatever the reason, the _ ill-considered 
changes have already been felt. Teachers 
qualified to teach the classics at the high 
school level are getting scarce. Soon they will 
be non-existant. When that happens, centuries 
of culture will begin to fade from our cultural 
memory. Could it be that the modern teacher, 
armed only with a degree in education, has 
rendered himself unqualified to teach these 
subjects--and knows it? Let's hope we haven't 
lost out on the wisdom of the ages because of a 
bureaucratic ruling. 

The same phenomenon crops up in 
literature. The classics have been edged off cur- 
ricula in increasing numbers,replaced by the 
Steinbecks and Updikes and Atwoods. These 
are brilliant authors but they tell only a small 


Hair Design isan 


commentary 


know what it means to be able to take out the 
hockey stick, the puck, the skates, and practise 
whatever needs practicing. 

Obviously you don't know what it’s like to 
free-wheel in a nice, well-lit rink, with all the 
friends in the neighborhood. 

You can't do that in the two arenas of this ci- 


atement 


You also make the suggestion that Mission 
residents may use the river. Fine. It’s alright for 
free skating and a small game of scrub hockey, 
but it’s not wide enough, it doesn’t have boards 
surrounding it, and it develops cracks almost as 
fast as the streets we drive on. 

Alderman Margaret Smith, you're thinking is 
plainly not up to scratch, and if this is the at- 
titude of council, be it one person or all, then | 
sincerely feel sorry for you. 

Your days may be numbered. 

Stop messing around with this, and give the 
residents of Mission the rink they deserve. 

Sometimes you would think the money is 
coming out of your own pocket! 


Greek: Great teachers in Exile 


part of the story. A whole literary tradition has 
been based on the classics, with the result that 
modern works can be obscure to anyone 
without at least a nodding acquaintance with 
the great books. A modern student attending 
the film “Apocalypse Now” will not find the line 
“Mistah Kuhtz-he dead” very enlightening if he 
hasn't read Conrad’s Heart of Darkness, on 
which the film is vaguely based. 

To a great extent,this desertion of past 
disciplines was done to reduce rigidity in cur- 
ricula. The word was ‘flexibility’, but the 
classics just don’t change with the times. The 
fact that they are so named because of their 
timeless relevance went unnoted. The experts 
also said that youth should be free of restraint. 
Today’s child, they intoned, could never iden- 
tify with Homer and Aristophanes. Little Johnny 
wants Sesame Street, not Seneca. 

The theme of the incapable child is a per- 
vasive myth, and is fortunately being exploded 
by people like Chicago’s Marva Collins. Her 
school is one chaotic room. She teaches the 
children’s whose parents understand, with the 
acuity of the very poor, that their children will 


only succeed with a meaningful, measureable 
education.The ultimate product of such an 
education is a civilized person.Unfortunately, 
some modern literature isn’t even civil. 

At the Collins school, CBS’s Mike Wallace 
was filmed asking a class of nine to fourteen 
year olds what they liked to read. With unfeign- 
ed enthusiasm, the kids began to chatter about 
Dostoevsky, Chaucer and Tennyson. They knew 
what they were talking about. 

This shouldn't be too surprising. A child's 
preference for quality results from a lack of 
pretension and an uncluttered mind. Who 
wouldn’t prefer Dickens and Jane Eyre to Dick 
and Jane? ‘Young’ does not have to imply 
‘insipid’. 

The trend is changing, .a little. A few 
American schools have.re-instated Latin,to help 
inner city kids learn English, ironically enough. |t 
is also a valuable vocabulary aid. 

The changes in recent decades have been 
enormous, giving us a tendency to uncertainty 
and rootlessness.A classical education en- 
sures the lessons of the past will be 
remembered. A society that forgets its origins 
is as lost as a man with amnesia.

Drug bust nets large cache 


The RCMP Drug Squad raided 66 Flagstone Crescent 
last Thursday, and seized a total of $42,000 worth of 
Hawaiian marijuana, hashish and psilocybin 
(hallucinogenic magic mushrooms), 

Eric Engman of B.C., Fred Ogloof, Randy Sperling and 
Ray Kamigochi of that address have been charged with two 
charges each of possession of narcotics for the purpose of 
trafficking and one charge each of having a restricted drug 
for the purpose of trafficking. 


Car crashes into 
fence and garage 


A 16 year old St. Albert youth has been charged with 
driving with undue care and attention as a result of a single 
vehicle accident last Thursday morning near Paul Kane 
High School. . 

Shawn Pocha of St. Albert was driving a 71 Ford south 
along Cunningham Road past Paul Kane and Leo Nicker- 
son schools at an excessive speed when his car went out of 
control, jumped the boulevard, crossed the centre median 
and the northbound lanes and into a fence and garage at 62 
Fawcett Crescent. 

Damage has been estimated at over $2,500, but that 
estimate is considered conservative. No one was injured in 
the incident. 

One resident of the area told the Gazette that the curve is 
a particularly dangerous one, as many motorists going too 
fast around the bend tend to lose control. 

Community Relations Officer with the St, Albert 
RCMP, Cst. Brian Huddle, echoed those sentiments say- 
ing, ‘‘That is a bad area, there are a lot of accidents there. 
Every time you go by there, there’s another tree broken 
down.” He added that the main cause is motorists driving 


RCMP

fast along the straight three or four block section, then not 
being able to negotiate the bend in the road. 


Flasher doesn’t mind 
cool weather 


Last Saturday, another report of indecent exposure was 
phoned into the RCMP station, this time in the Campbell 
Industrial Park. 

About 11 a.m., a nude man was seen running around 
with a large dog on a leash. He was seen to enter a vacant 
area in the lower area of Campbell Centre, then later depar- 
ting the building. 

His mode of transportation is unknown, but the RCMP 
are still looking into the matter.

Athabasca Landing Trail 


Boards looking at Trail North plan 


St. Albert’s two school 
districts are presently examin- 
ing a proposal that would see 
them join a consortium to 
plan and develop facilities of 


Cooper Caper 


an educational and recrea- 
tional value along the historic 
trail that once ran between 
Fort Edmonton’ and 
Athabasca Landing. 

The Trail North Founda- 


A true capitalist 


D. B. Cooper Day has 
passed us by once again, For 
those whose memories need 
a jog, Cooper (as he was 
listed on the flight manifest) 
had the dubious distinction 
of being the world’s first 
skyjacker. He was also an 
exceptionally cool character, 
who collected his $200,000 
ransom and literally dis- 
appeared into thin air, with 
the help of four parachutes. 
No trace of the man or the 
money was ever found. 

So what is the purpose of 
this reminiscence about an 
extortionist? Well, when he 
successfully pulled off the 
Cooper Caper, ‘Gnknown 
hijacker made’ capitalistic 
history, as the only hijacker 
whose motive was money. 
He was also the only hijacker 
who was successful! Here is 
irrefutable proof that there is 
greater inspiration in cash 
than in causes. The Running 


Dogs of Capitalism triumph 
once again! 

As for Cooper himself, it is 
as if he jumped into a void. 
He has vanished. However, 
the man that pulled off this 
crime was no dummy. If-he is 
alive and has invested the 
money as shrewdly as he got 
it, then he could now be a 
wealthy man. Maybe he is 
even a prominent one. Now 
let's see -- who has come on 
the scene in the last few 
years that might fill the bill. 
There’s Joe Clark, Jimmy 
Carter, Brian Mulroney, 
Charles Bricklin, ‘‘Terrible"’ 
Ted Turner, Freddie Laker, 
Rene Simard, Conrad Black, 
Craig Russell, Paul Rimstead 
to name a few. Perhaps the 
elusive Cooper could even be 
hiding behind the skirts of 
transexual doctor-tennis . pl- 
ayer Renee Richards. The 
possibilities are as numerous 
as they are tantalizing...

tion, a non-profit organiza- 
tion seeking to preserve and 
develop the historic 
Athabasca Landing Trail, has 
asked that the boards of each 
district within the area sup- 
port in principle the concept 
of the Trail’s preservation 
and upgrading. The Founda- 
tion would then return with a 
completed plan for the Trail 
at which time the boards 
could make a decision on 
whether to become further 
involved including a financial 
commitment. 
Representatives of the 
school districts along the 
Trail met with officials of

Ist. They were briefed on the 
historical and biophysical 
characteristics of the Trail 
and discussed the possible in- 
volvement of school systems

facilities which would com-

Prime rate hike hurts local commerce 


With the prime lending rate 
soaring to dizzying, im- 
poverishing heights, the 
Gazette thought we should 
check on how local enter- 
prises were faring. Because 
the banks are vitally intercon- 
nected with business, we went 
to them first. 

Unfortunately, there were 
few surprises. The Royal 
Bank of Canada, the Bank of 
Montreal, and the Toronto 
Dominion all report that their 
loan business has fallen off in

sensus was that St. Albertans 
are sitting tight right now to 
decide whether these 


astronomical rates keep go- 
ing. They have made no move 
to reduce luxury spending, 
but neither has there been a 
great tendency to increase it.

Ah, the pristine snows of winter - what a joy to an- 
ticipate. The skiers are already sulking and glowering 
at the sunny skies, in the hope of scaring some snow 
out of them. What urge compeiis a person to en- 
cumber his feet with strips of lumber for the purpose 
of falling down at high speeds escapes me. My own 
experience with skiing left me with no such compul- 
sion. 

It looked easy at first. Just balance somehow and 
slide down the hiil. This may well be, but that presup- 
poses one knows how to get up the damn hill in the 
first place. All the elaborate towing equipment in the 
Laurentians proved inadequate to get one clumsy, 
overweight 10 year old up the hill. 

In my Innocence, my first choice was the rope tow. 
This is an innocuous enough device which allows the 
rope to pull you up the hill on your skis. Unfortunate- 
ly, no one thought to tell me to take the rope gently in 
my hand. | grapped hold with a grip of pure terror and 
promptly took off head first up the hill. Eventually, 
skis tangled and | fell down in a whimpering mess of 
skis, poles and outrage. My humiliation was made 
complete when the entire tow was stopped because 
of my mishap. Immediately a snarl went up from the 
skiers waiting impatiently for a tow. It was my first 
experience of bilingual profanity | retired, a beaten 
child. 

The next trip up the hill was carefully planned by a 
friend in the ski patrol, who said tows were the 
easi/est part. Sadist. 

“Don't worry,” he said, “You'll have a lovely time 
on this one.” 

Sure, however | wish he had added that a poma lift 
ls meant to be straddled, not sat upon. Needless to 
say, | sat - heavily. The results were mortifying. The

entire cable which held up the seats suddenly sagg-

ground, where they rolled about in impotent rage. 
Others were content with merely shaking their fists. 

With this experience, | vetoéd the chair lift. In- 
stead, | decided to climb the hills myself. It was great 
fun. One hour up the hill, three minutes down. In 
eight hours of skiing, | usually managed at least five 
runs, and seven and a half hours climbing. 

It was during that same holiday that my suspicions 
about the sport were confirmed. It's strictly for 
madmen. The incident took place just as | was acquir- 
Ing a faltering familiarity with the skis and finished 
me for the sport. | hac just set out for the last run of 
the day and beginning to get a bit cocky. My eyes 
were glued to the ground beneath me to ensure that 
everything was in its right place, and so | never knew 
what hit me. Godalmighty ~ dogs! | shook my befud- 


dled head trying to assimilate the presence of several 
dogs on a ski-hill. Nevertheless, there they were. Ac- 
cording to onlookers, | had apparently skied into the 
midst of a large, loud and vicious dog fight. The dogs, 
at jeast the uninjured ones, were furious at this un- 
timely interruption .of their fun. They eyed me 
belligerently and made snapping motions with their 
fangs. | dissolved into loud howls of horror. So did 
the dogs. As winter scenes go, /t was quite unusual. 

Although the dog fight did me in as a potential 
Olympic skier, it did give me a foolproof excuse to 
avoid skiing. (This is necessary. The sport's many 
fans are out there recruiting all the time, just like the 
Moonies.) When someone says “Come onskiing with 
us, It'll do you good,” | look them square in the eye 
and say “I am unable to ski. | have a phobia about 
dogs.” 

It shuts them up every time.

Board comes to grips with school trips 


Trustees of the Protestant 
School District have approv- 
ed a new policy which 
clarifies the District’s posi- 
tion on trips that are not 
school or district sponsored. 
It will not take responsibility 
for excursions with the 
reasoning that non-school 
and non-district activities 
cannot legally be approved by 
the Board. 

Responsibility for trips (to 


Europe, Eastern Canada, 
etc.) undertaken by in- 
dividual teachers or groups of 
teachers and students outside 
the school year (includes 
Christmas, Spring Break, 
etc.) is the ‘‘full and total 
responsibility of the plan- 
ners,”’ 

Superintendent Bargen 
told trustees that he has been 


receiving requests of this: 


nature and he required a 


Prather takes position 
in Fort McMurray 


Mr. Bob Prather, a long- 
time employee of the St. 
Albert Protestant Separate 
School District, has taken the 
position of superintendent of 
schools at Fort McMurray. 
He assumed his position 
November Ist. 

Mr. Prather has been ‘on 


BOB PRATHER 


loan’ to the Edmonton 
Regional Office of Alberta 
Education where he worked 
in the areas of Language Arts 
and Administration. He held 
the position of assistant 
superintendent Secondary 
Education with the St. Albert 
district. Since Mr. Prather 
secondment in 1978 Mr. 
Lowell Throndson has been 
acting assistant ‘superinten- 
dent. 

The Board has not moved 
to seek candidates for the 
assistant superintendent posi- 
tion, preferring to await a 
report from the District’s new 
superintendent Dr. Peter 
Bargen, which will ask for a 
re-organization of central of- 
fice structure. Dr. Bargen ex- 
pects the preliminary work on 
this report to be complete by 
January. 


Vandalism jumps 
in school district 


After a good start in 
September when no costs 
were incurred due to van- 
dalism, schools in the Protes- 
tant District were damaged 
for a total of $1,193 during 
October. 

Dr. Peter Bargen, 
superintendent at the 
District, commented on 
hallowe’en saying, ‘‘It was 
kind of rough on us this 
year.”” 

Paul Kane High School 
received the brunt when van- 
dals scaled the roof and threw 
rocks through courtyard win- 
dows. 

Dr. Bargen told trustees 
that, ‘there is only so much 
you can do (about vandalism) 
until you begin to affect peo- 
ple’s thinking.’’ He said that 
a program was planned for 
Paul Kane that will have little 
commercials going out over 
the school’s intercom during 
announcement breaks. 

It's like marketing a pro- 
duct,”” he said, 


Dr. Bargen also told 
trustees that district office 
was convinced much of the 
damage is not done by 
students of the district. 

Trustee Wes Penner, the 
person largely responsible for 
the District’s ‘Project Incen- 
tive Pilot Study’ reminded 
trustees that the school 
district in San Francisco from 
which St. Albert borrowed its 
idea experienced an increase 
in vandalism as years went 
by. That district felt that a 
lack of promotion of the pro- 
ject was the reason this was 
so. The incentive to cut out 
vandalism must always be 
kkept in pupils attention. 

District 6 schools also had 
a bad October last year when 
$1,052 in damages were sus- 
tained compared to $479.22 
in September and $145.21 in 
November, 

It seems that not only 
goblins and witches roam the 
streets hallowe’en. We'll have 
to add vandals to that list.

e “A Sleep of Prisoners:” Laying a metaphysical egg -Fryed! 


By Victoria Knight 

As a person who makes a

regard Christopher Fry in the 
way a sign painter might look 
at Rembrandt. Fry’s lyric 
brilliance is dazzling. For this

Exciting Montreal dancer 
coming to Sub Theatre 


A Canadian dancer who set 
out at an early age to develop 
a’style exclusively her own - 
and did so - has drawn large 
crowds and enthusiastic 
reviews across Canada. A 
considerable achievement for 
a solo dancer presenting her 
own choreography. 

Margie Gillis of Montreal, 
by her intense concentration, 
the energy and excitement she 
infuses into dancing, the 
stunning changes of pace, 
and the search for freedom 
which characterizes her one- 
woman shows, has had a 
remarkable success in 
reaching beyond the lights 
and gripping her audiences, 
not easy done in her home 
country. 

In China, two impromptu 
performances ‘in outdoor 
parks while on a student tour 
cataputed her into the 


limelight, and she became an 
instant celebrity. Huge 
crowds flocked to every per- 
formance which her hosts 
could arrange. Students came 
from afar and Margie gave 
classes, servants appeared to 
tend to her every need. 
Margie was an outstanding 
cultural ambassador - and 
has been invited back. She 
has also toured in Japan and 
Hawaii. Margie had brought 
modern dance to China for 
the first time and both au- 
diences and dancers were en- 
tranced. 

Margie Gillis will appear at 
the U of A’s Sub Theatre for 
two shows, November 21 and 
22 at 8 p.m. Tickets at the 
Student Union box office, 
the Bay or at the door. 

The Montreal Gazette calls 
Gillis ‘tone of the most 
magnetic performers Canada 
has produced.

reason, I get a bit testy when 
a production of a. Fry play 
like ‘‘A Sleep of Prisoners’’ 
isn’t produced in a way that 
measures up to the script. 

In the case of the Rice 
Theatre production, the title 
“A Sleep of Prisoners’’ 
seems all too apt. Judging by 
the end result, neither 
Leonard White nor his cast 
could have been fully 
awakened to the odd dimen- 
sions and subtle truths that 
make it work, s 

Although the play is con- 
temporary, it is a strange 
melding of the medieval 
mystery play, with its biblical 
enactments, and the later 
morality play, with its 
allegorical characters per- 
sonifying various sins and vir- 
tues. This medieval quality 
was not well served in the 
Rice Production. The 
character definition is fuzzy, 
and so obscures the relation- 
ship between the character 
and the Biblical character of 
his dream. This ambiguity 
had the audience straining to 
decipher meanings, and in 
their mystified concentration, 
they often sat deadpan 
through many of Fry’s sly 
double entendres. This isn’t 
just a comedic loss, as Fry 
often uses a play on words to 


* convey a second and deeper 


meaning, of which the 
speaker is often unaware. 

It occasionally seemed dur- 
ing the performance as if the 
director had’a Hollywood at- 
titude to writers, i.e. that a 
thought can be conveyed in 
any number of ways by any 
number of hacks, as long as 
the sentiment is more or less 
unchanged. Why else would 
he have given such short 
Shrift to the glorious 
language of the play. It could 
have been exploited to a 
greater extent. (Brendan 
Barry is of course exempt 
from this particular charge. I 
doubt he could mumble with 
a mouthful of marbles). Bits 
like ‘‘the smell of cooped up 
angels,’’ ‘‘a festering day’’ 


_and “his dream is dreaming 


him’’ are not exactly throw- 
away lines and their beauty 
warrants a more meaningful 
delivery. 

Private Meadows states the 
purpose of the play when he 
refers to ‘‘an exploration into 
God.’’ Surely this should be 
an electrifying experience, yet 
any sense of portent or excite- 
ment was curiously absent. If 
any level of this play (and 
they are many) is not well 
served, the whole work is 
debilitated and the audience 
bewildered. In musical terms, 
this play should have been 
produced in quadraphonic, 
but it was merely mono, with 
all the limitations that im- 
plies. 

With the possible excep- 
tion of David Ferry, all the 
performances reflected only a 
supervicial understanding of 
the work. In the case of Mr. 
Barry this was most 
noticeable (one of the 
drawbacks of a heroic voice 
and presence is that not just 
the successes are heroic in 
scale. Mr. Barry should have 
been directed to the subtle in- 
tertwining of fervour, agres- 
sion, pathos and anticipation 
that permeates the play. I 


‘don’t hink Leonard White 


plumbed this work to its dep- 
ths of ‘quiet desperation’ that 
underly the dreams. This led 
to a facile interpretation. Fry 
is a man of what has been 
described as ‘‘missionary 
urgency’’ regarding his 
ideals. In this play, the tone 
and pace are more desultory 
than urgent. 

David Ferry seemed to 
have some intuitive sense of 
the relationship between style 
and content that makes Fry’s 
work exhilarating. When the 
playwright’s thoughts soar to 
ethereal heights so does his 
verse. In his fascination with 
man and his God, Fry often 
brings his characters to the 
brink of some cosmic com- 
prehension, Ferry was the on- 
ly one whose demeanor sug- 
gested anything out of the or- 
dinary was happening. True, 
Fry is fond of the humour of 
Everyman, but that does not 
have to imply a banal treat- 
ment. Ferry’s mobile, ever- 


V 
Kaa 


O 


changing expressions were a 
spark of badly needed anima- 
tion. 

The character of Private 
Meadows is elusive to grasp, 
and Paul Craig could have 
used some direction here. 
Meadows must be gentled by 
age, and yet represent the 
Father-God figure of the 
dreams. Craig settled for a 
kind of bland ambiguity that 
homogenized the subtle 
shadings of character. 
Without them to explain the 
action, the audience was left 


groping. 

Raymond Skipp was close 
to the mark in his interpreta- 
tion of David, but he tended 
to throw it away. Private 
King-Cain is a venomous, 
unhappy man with a curious 
vulnerability. Skipp had the 
self-deprecating look and the 
hostility down pat. Unfor- 
tunately, he swallowed quite 
a few of the lines and the 
overall effect was sullen. 


Although I have carped 
endlessly here, I enjoyed ‘‘A 
Sleep of Prisoners”’ a la Rice, 
and I’m glad to see the 
theatre tackling a play that 
runs the risk of being found 
incomprehensible. Like the 
Walterdale’s ‘‘Heloise and 
Abelard”’ last year, it was a 
challenge. For those who 
want to learn about theatre, it 
is in fact probably more 
valuable to see a failed at- 
tempt at a difficult play than 
a successful attempt at a 
mediocre one. And this play 
has a reputation for difficulty 
and is known as a work that 
rises and falls on its director. 
This production rises to its 
knees.

Tributes and Tirades 


By Victofia Knight 
The Citadel has apparently 
re-examined its, position on 
curtain times,Recently the 
theatre’s patrons have been 
asked to fill out a form 
Stating their preferences. I 
hope the board decides that 
‘elegance’ and ‘late’ are not 
synonymous and puts the 
Shoctor Curtain back a half 
hour. This would enable 
those who take public transit 
to get a bus before the system 
collapses for the night. This 
group no doubt includes 
students and senior citizens, 
who have enough to deal with 
already. 


A tribute goes to Frank 
Moher, of Northern Light 
Theatre. Interface magazine 
last month published a windy 
article on the ‘‘philosophical 
underpinnings’’ of the 
various local theatres. As far 
as I’m concerned the whole 
discussion is a lot of 
superfluous piffle. Surely, 
the business of the theatre is 
theatre, not philosophy. Did 
the Bard and the boys at the 
Globe theatre fret about their 
philosophical underpinnings? 
I doubt it -- they were pro- 
bably too busy performing 
and keeping an eye on their 
own underpinnings. 

In his response to the arti- 
cle, Mr. Moher wrote a very 
dignified and succinct letter 
to the editor. He gently in- 
formed Mr. Reg Sylvester, 
who wrote the piece, that the 
concern of the theatre in 
style, not philosophy. It is all 
too easy for the people who 
write about the arts, in- 
cluding me, to get carried 
away with irrelevant 
abstracts. It’s fun to play 
about with such lofty ideals 
but it has nothing to do with 
theatre. The people who 
work in the business are less 
awed by their art and general- 
ly take a much more practical 
view. Whatever their 
philosophy, I only hope Nor- 
thern Light continues the 
kind of joyous theatre for 
which it is becoming widely 
acclaimed. Sylvester attempts 
to define Northern Light 
again in this month’s issue, 
with little success. How does 
one define the magical pro- 
cess that produces a specific 
style? You don’t. You sit 
back and enjoy the end 
result. 


Another kudo, still at Nor- 
thern Light, this time to Scott 
Swan. In recent interview, 
Scott commented that he was 
fond of a coined word -- 
“‘Gullivered’’. The reference 
to Gulliver and the Lilipu- 
tians is perfect: Most of us 
have felt tied down by a thou-

sand tiny threads, rather than 
a few major ones, an unplea- 
sant feeling which must be 
similar to what Gulliver felt 
as the little people trussed 
him up. If Scott coined it 
himself, he has contributed a 
colorful, accurate word to a 
language that is fast becom- 
ing bland, stilted and utterly 
boring. You might even say 
the language has been 
Gullivered ... 


It really sets one back on 
the heels to re-discover what 
a small world the arts scene 
really is, in terms of the 
general populace. In the past 
week, two people have told 
me they had never heard of 
the Citadel Theatre. This is 
nigh on to miraculous! With 
the further adventures of 
Peter and the Wolves from 
immigration, the Maertz-Coe 
battles; the curtain time 
debate and all the other 
hysterical little spats in which 
the theatre has been publicly 
embroiled in, it must take 
hard work to avoid at least 
hearing of it. It’s no doubt a 
state of affairs occasionally 
envied by those who are ex- 
cessively familiar.

how the article affect the

clarify what I had written last 
week, although it can’t be 
denied that many people were 
drinking, not EVERYONE 
was. I honestly did not write 
about the drinking to jeopar- 
dize the school - I simply 
wrote about something that

to thousands of fans as ‘Big 
Mac’’. With. the Harlem 
Clowns for more than ten 
years, the giant six-foot-seven 
McKelvy is truly ane of the 
great showmien of travelling 
basketball teams. He is 
player-owner of the new 
Harlem Nationals. 

“Big Mac’’ is a terrific 
showman and has a warm 
personality which has made 
him a favourite on the show 
basketball circuit. His one- 
handed push shot from 35 
feet out on the court is one of 
the most spectacular shots in 
the game. He seldom misses. 

Every night Mac takes over 
for a few minutes as ‘referee’. 
Blowing the whistle, he mo- 
tions the regular official to 
the bench and then initiates 
new ‘‘rules’’ into the game, 
calling fouls on his own team- 
mates for such infractions as 
“travelling without a suit- 
case’ and ‘‘too much funny 
stuff’’! 

McKelvy also has that rare 
ability of knowing how to 
handle men and this the 
secret of his success as owner

Marty 
0’ Kell 


| WAS ASKED LAST WEEK WHY! WASN'T getting 
down on the Edmonton Oilers. 

The answer | gave was, “why should |?” (Giving a 
question in answer to a question is an easy way out). 

Actually, in my mind | am very disappointed in the 
Oilers. | figured they would be doing better than they 
are. 

You can’t expect a lot from this team in their first 
NHL year though. After all, they lost all but two 
defencemen in the “expansion.” And the ones they 
received to replace last year’s biueline crew aren't 
first star material. 

The defence is the main problem with the Oilers. 
Everyone knows that. 

Risto Siltanen, the young Finn his team-mates call 
the Littlest Hulk, is an offensive minded defenceman. 
Somewhat in the mold of Borje Salming. 

Risto’s claim to fame so far this season /s his 
booming slapshot, which | admit is awfully good. But 
his ability to play defence /s lacking in some areas. 
However, the 21 year old will probably develop into a 
darn good bjueliner. 

Pat Price, after coming from the once powerful 
New York Islanders, is of the faucet variety. He runs 
hot and cold. Mostly the cold. 

| can't believe he played with the almighty 
Islanders. He would have barely made the 1978-79 
versions of the Ollers. 

Lee Fogolin, last year with the Buffalo Sabres, has 
been more steady than shaky: He does, at times, 
show he’s still a young feller, with a definite lack of 
experience. But | think he'll settle down and be the 
anchor of the defence. 

Doug Hicks has been somewhat of a pleasant sur- 
prise. | didn't expect much from him, especially after 
the first two or three games. Of late, though, he has 
been playing heads-up hockey, both defensively and 
offensively. 

Al Hamilton, though, is a lost cause as far as | am 
concerned. Al was a good defender in his prime, but 
his prime ended when he received an eye injury a cou- 
ple of years ago. Al should retire. Period. 

Kevin Lowe, because of Injuries, hasn't really 
played enough to make a fair judgment. The young 
draft pick will most likely turn into a good one. 
Besides, you always have to keep a top draft choice 
around for about three years, just to make sure you 
don't dump one before he starts turning on the back 
burners. 

Colin Campbell has been a BIG disappointment to 
me. His play hasn’t helped the Oilers much at all. 
Maybe some other team could use him. f 

Paul Popiel, called up from the minors to help 
bolster an injury-plagued defence, is just not the 
Pople! we used to watch a few years ago on Hockey 
Night in Canada. He has experience, but he doesn’t 
have the legs to go with it. He hasn't been too bad 
though. 

Bryon Baltimore could be the Oilers ace in thehole. 
Baltimore has the tools to be a good one. The next 
few weeks will tell the story. If he doesn't pan out, 
he'll be back in the minors. In a@ hurry. 

In summary of the defensive corps of the Edmon- 
ton Ollers, and if | was the coach of the club, | would 
get rid of Hamilton, Popiel, Campbell and Price. But 
then, who would you get in return? 

If the Oilers make a trade, | hope it's Ron Chipper- 
field. Chipper hasn't been playing up to snuff this 
season, and he’s the only player Edmonton could 
trade in hopes of getting the kind of defenceman that 
would help the team out. Chipper has a name, going 
back to his junior days when he was the best sniper 
in the Western Canada Hockey League, or whatever it 
was called that year. 

Fans have a reason to be down a little on the Ea- 
monton Oilers, but then again, fans shouldn't expect 
a whole lot from them either. 

Look at some of the teams In the NHL that have 
been around for a long time. Like the Toronto Maple 
Leafs, and the Detroit Red Wings. Their fans don't 
have a heck of a lot to cheer about, considering their 
clubs have been in the loop for decades. 

Teams from the expansion of '67 haven't been do- 
ing great either, with the exception of Philadelphia, 
Minnesota and Los Angeles. 

Basically what I’m saying /s ... be patient, It took 
five years to build the Flyers of Philadelphia. We can 
wait at least that long to really whine and complain. 


A decision could be made 


School football forum tonight 


By Marty O’ Kell 
A decision could be made 
tonight at a special public 
meeting regarding the possi- 
ble formation of a high 
school football team for Paul 
Kane High School. 
The meeting, at the Paul 
Kane cafeteria, begins at 6 


p.m. sharp this evening and 
will feature special guests to 
talk about various aspects of 
high school football. 

The meeting will open with 
a general discussion and 
outline on the night’s pro- 


am. 
All those attending the 


Hee Gervais classic 
approaching 


The sixth annual Hec Ger- 
vais Curling Classic is shap- 
ing uip to be what its name 
implies, a ‘‘classic.’”’ 

The event, scheduled for 
Nov. 30 to Dec. 3, will 
feature top name curlers and 
$20,000 in prize money, with 
the winning rink taking home 
$8,000. 

The spiel, which will be 
held at the St. Albert 
Club, will involve 40 rinks 
and three events. 

When curling is finished 
Sunday, the top two rinks 
from ‘‘A’’ and ‘‘B’’ events, 
and the top four from ‘*C”’ 
will advance to the qualifying 
round on Monday. 

The eight rinks will play 
sudden-death, meaning one 
loss will knock a rink out of 
contention. 

In addition to the first 
place prize of $8,000 the se- 
cond place rink will receive 
$4,000, third and fourth 


® 


$2,000, with the fifth, sixth, 


seventh and eighth place 
foursomes winning $1,000 
per rink. 

St. Albert rinks that will 
participate are Gary Mix, 
Marvin Wirth, Ray Osborne, 
Al Edwards, Gerry Fisher, 
Bob McMaster, and of 
course, Hec Gervais. 

Other crews that will be in 
attendance are Danny Fink, 
Rob King, Darwin Daviduk, 
Ernie Hilton, Paul Devlin, 
Ken Matheson and Bryan 
Bygraves from Edmonton, 
Dean Jacula from Viking, 
Roy Talbot from Red Deer, 
and Stan Austman, Bernie 
Yuzdepski, Wayne Skolowski 
and Larry McGrath from 
Saskatoon. The McGrath 
crew will be skipped by Bob

A banquet, sponsored by 
Standard General, will be 
held at the Legion Hall on 
Thursday, November 29 for 
the entrants.

Ringette: a girl’s 
answer to hockey 


Girls have found the 
answer for what hockey has 
meant to guys - Ringette. 

Ringette is an active winter 
sport, similar to hockey in 
many ways, but designed 
especially for girls. 

The tremendous growth of 
this sport across Canada is) 
living proof of its popularity 


and acceptance. 

The game is played on a 
hockey rink with a maximum 
of six players from each team 
on the ice at one time. There 
is one goalie, two 
defencemen, two forwards 
and one centre. The centre 
can go anywhere on the ice 
surface, the defencemen can 


Hercules general

The Hercules Sports 
Association, which looks 
after minor soccer and 
fastball, and senior soccer for 
next year, will be holding its 
annual general meeting on 
Thursday night at the Percy 
Page Centre at 7:30 p.m. 


The meeting will first wrar 
up old business, then elect a 
new executive. 

The public is most welcome 
to come out, as this is one of 
the few times of the year that 
public comments are dealt 
with officially. 


play anywhere except for the 
offensive zone, and the for- 
wards can play anywhere ex- 
cept for their own defensive 
zone. 

A player cannot cross the 
blueline while in possession 
of the ring (which is used in- 
stead of a puck), therefore a 
pass is mandatory, making 
the game a total team effort. 
The stick is a regular hockey 
stick, with the blade cut off, 
making for easy insertion in- 
to the centre of the ring. 

Body contact is not allow- 
ed. 

Any girls in St. Albert bet- 
ween the ages of 8 and 13 are 
invited to come out to the 
first ringette practice on Fri- 
day from 8:30 to 10 p.m., 
and from 11 a.m. to 12:30 
p.m. on Saturday at the Per- 
ron Arena. A registration will 
be held at a later date.

Saints move into third place with weekend wins 


By Larry Mitchell 

St. Albert Junior Saints 
moved back into sole posses- 
sion of third place in the 
eight-team Alberta Junior 
““A’’ Hockey League with a 
pair of impressive wins over, 
the weekend. 

Saturday night in St. 
Albert, Saints came from 
behind a 2-1 deficit in the 
first period and scored three 
unanswered goals in the se-| 
cond to defeat the Calgary’ 
Canucks before the largest! 
crowd of the season at 
Akinsdale Arena.

back of front-running Red 
Deer Rustlers. 

Red Deer, who have only 
lost four of 21 starts, is the 
Saints opposition tonight in 
Akinsdale and, if the game 
goes as has the team’s last! 
three meetings between them, 
the fans should be in for; 
some very entertaining ac-' 
tion. 

Saints have only one point 
in those three games as 4) 
result of a 2-2 tie here on Oc- 
tober 17 while the Rustlers 
have won both games at 
home by scores of 9-8 and 
40 


Rustlers are following! 
along the lines of the 
Philadelphia Flyers of a few 
years ago and appear to not 
be under control of the 
Alberta Junior Hockey 
League. Coach John Chap- 
man was suspended in a game 
in Sherwood Park a couple of! 
weeks ago for 12 games and is | 
not allowed in any arena that 
the Rustlers are playing. A 
person dressed up in a gorilla 


suit sat on the Red Deer| 
bench in a game played in 
*Calgary with the Canucks last 
week. Although it was never| 
found out who the person| 


was, there is strong suspicion| ' 


that it was Chapman 
underneath the suit. 

League President Ron! 
Leopold and referee-in-chief 
Ron Burwash apparently: 
were at that game and 
nothing has happened as a 
result of it, 

Red Deer team officials 
should be reprimanded for 
allowing that type of 
mockery to take place. There 
is no doubt what would hap- 
pen if the Saints had ever 
tried that type of thing when 
Coach Messier was suspend- 
ed last season and not allow- 
ed in the arena. 

Getting back to the Saints 
double wins, Messier was 
more than pleased with the 
team’s performance especial- 
ly the win over the Canucks. 

Calgary took a 1-0 lead 
with only 19 seconds gone in 
the game when Saint 
goaltender Brian Ford 
misplayed a harmless Calgary 
shot and deflected it into his 
own net. 

Saints came back less than 
three minutes later on a goal 
by Warren Malinowski to tie 
the game at 3:58. 

Gary Smith, who scored 
the overtime goal in Calgary 
last weekend, gave the 
Canucks a 2-1 lead at 13:23, 

Saints complet 
dominated the middle period 
as they scored, three 
unanswered goals “with Jim 
McEwan getting the equalizer 
at 2:28 and then a pair of 
goals by/defenseman Steve 
McKendZie at 8:27 and 13:07 
gave St. Albert a 4-2 lead. 

The third period was fairly 
even with both clubs getting a 
single goal each. Malinowski 
with his second of the night 
put the Saints ahead 5-2 and

Arrows in a tailspin 


The Bantam B rep State 
Flooring Arrows dropped 
both league games on the 
weekend with an 8-3 loss to 
Sherwood Park on Saturday 
and a disappointing 4-3 loss 
to Fort Saskatchewan. 

In Sherwood Park, the Ar- 
rows dominated play in the 
opening minutes and narrow- 
ly missed scoring on several 
occasions. The game remain- 
ed scoreless until late in the 
first period when Sherwood 
Park scored two quick goals. 
After playing so well and be- 


ing unable to capitalize on 
numerous scoring chances, 
the Arrows seemed to lose 
their confidence and at the 
end of the first period were 
down 4-0. 

Sherwood Park scored two 
more goals in the second 
period and definitely 
outplayed the Arrows. 
However, Darryn Ernest, on 
a fine play with Dean Bosch, 

able to put St. Albert on 
thé ‘séexeboard. Ernest scored 
again in the third-period from 
Kevin Laliberte and com-

Canucks late in the game. 

Ford was very sharp in the 
Saints goal to record the win. 

Referee Jim Beaudry had a 
fairly easy game to call and 
issued 11 minors to the Saints 
and seven to the Canucks as 
both clubs stuck to playing 
hockey. 

Sunday evening in 
Drumheller, the Saints took a 
1-0 first period lead ona goal 
by Troy Murray, his 19th of 
the season. 

Art Howe with his first of 
the year and Murray again 
scored in the second period. 

St. Albert scored five goals 
in the third with the defense 
getting four of them as Steve 
McKenzie popped in a pair 
along with Jeff Marshall and 
Colin Solheim. Marshall and 
Solheim’s were their first of 
the year while Jim Lee with 
his sixth added the final 
Saints scoring drive. 

Saints lost their bid for 
their first-ever shutout in two 
and a half seasons of play 
when Jeff Hendricks beat 
Scott Webster at 16:53 of the 
final period. 

Troy Murray appears to 
have regained his scoring 
touch, as he came up with 
five goals and two assists in 
the last three games.

pleted a hat-trick by scoring 
late in the period from 
George Lemoine. Sherwood 
Park came back with two 
more in ending the game with 
an 8-3 win. 

In Fort Saskatchewan the 
Arrows skated much better 
and demonstrated more team 
effort to take an early lead on 
a goal by Dean Bosch from 
Kevin Laliberte and Darryn 
Ernest. Bosch scored again in 
the second period unassisted 
and the Arrows went out in 
front 2-0. Penalties called 
against St. Albert, particular- 
ly in the second and third 
periods forced the Arrows to 
play short-handed 


throughout much of the 
game. The Fort was able to 
tie the game in the second 
period and went ahead by 
one goal in the third while St. 
Albert was serving another 
penalty. 


Kevin Laliberte tied the 
game while killing a penalty 
with Gerome Bruha getting 
the assist. It appeared that 
the Arrows would come away 
with one point, however the

At a game in St. Albert 
Thursday night, Sabres com- 
pletely dazzled their Leduc 
opponents in a one-sided af- 
fair as Sabres took it 9-0. St. 
Albert scored five in the first 
period. Todd Ewen scored 
early on a goal-mouth scram- 
ble assisted by Scott Rusnak 
and Tim Sebastian. A minute 
later it was Darren 
Weismantel who popped one 
in off a pass from Willy 
Plageman. Next it was John 
Lenz’ turn as he found his 
way to the net unassisted. 
Dave Kendall connected soon 
after with a nice drive assisted 
by Darrin Walker and Dale 
McFee. Tony Rouault finish- 
ed first period scoring with a 
nice shorthanded goal with 
an assist going to Erin Oor. 

Both teams did a lot of

with an extra man on a 
delayed penalty call. Todd 
Carnelley got the other St. 
Albert goal with an assist 
from Ewen. 

In rough third period ac- 
tion, both teams took a half 
dozen penalties. Leduc failed 
to score but St. Albert tallied 
two more - one on a 
powerplay goal by Rouault 
from Ewen and the other by 
McFee for his second of the 
night. Sabres goalie, Chris 
Lane, got the shutout. 

Sabres travelled to Ar- 
drossan Sunday afternoon 
for a match with Strathcona 
and continued their winning 
ways with a 9-4 victory. 
McFee and Rusnak were the 
big guns for St. Albert as they 
both collected hat tricks. 

First period play was fast 
and even but it was Sabres all 
the way as they counted for 
three. McFee tucked a nice 
backhand in from an im- 
possible angle while Sabres 
were shorthanded. Two 
minutes later Rusnak picked 
the top corner after some 
good work by Sebastian and 
Ewen. With 11 seconds left, it 
was Rusnak again as a 
sprawling Sebastian poked 
him the puck. 

McFee scored his second 
early in period two with 
another backhand shot into 
the top corner. Kendall got 
the assist. Then it was 
Rouault with a hard slapshot 
off a pass from Tony Baller, 
as the Sabres were shorthand- 
ed. Strathcona chalked one 
up halfway through the 
period and another before 
the period ended. St. Albert 
popped one more in with one 
second left to play in the se- 
cond. This time it was Walker 
with a drive from the point. 
Assists went to Kendall and 
Lenz. 


Halfway through period 
three, McFee got his hat trick 
as he went in all alone. 
Seconds later; Don Neil put 
one in after a nice set-up

The Carma squad came to

Although levelled by a hard

Carswell which forced him to 
sit out the better part of the

far the best performer for 
Stony Plain. 

Carma’s other scorers were 
Blaine Weller, Blain Malan- 
chen and Mike Murphy. 
Single assists went to Bob 
Walsh, Roger Moore, Dave 
Bell, John Phillips and

St. Albert's entire defen-

tested 17 times to come up 
with the win. Walsh and Bell 
played one of their better 
games and were exceptionally

highlighted by a _ pressure-

The Grove’s ace-in-the hole 
proved to be Dean

including the winner at 18:10 
of the second frame. 

The local reps were 
outplayed badly by a fast

The Canadians controlled

five minute mark Fort 
Saskatchewan gained control 
and, showing a strong pass-

easy victory. Greg Hawgood 
also scored the Canadians’ 
second goal on a pass from 
Billy Mitchell, and was the 
outstanding player for Nu-

The Canadians travelled to

For this week ... 


Last season 12 hockey 
players were legally blinded 
spmpared to eight in the 
previous one, according to 
reports received by Dr. Tom 
Pashby, a Toronto 
ophthamologist and chair- 
man of the Canadian Stan- 
dards Association (CSA) 
Committee on Protective 
Equipment for Hockey and 
Lacrosse Players. 

During the 1977-78 season, 
Pashby received reports of 
eight eyes legally blinded, 
while the 1978-79 statistics 
show 12 eyes lost. None of 
the players injured were 
wearing hockey face protec- 
tors; a fact which disturbs

“The youngest victim to 
lose an eye was 19 years old 
and the rest were in their 20’s 
and 30's, explains Pashby. 
“The younger players are 
forced by their leagues to 
wear face protectors, but the 
older players are playing 
pick-up hockey and are not 
required to wear masks. The 
result is more injuries to the 
older players.”

Hockey player blindness increases 


which means that non- 
certified masks can be sold 
next to certified ones. 

“The wise hockey player 
should buy and wear a CSA 
certified hockey mask. Look 
for the mark before you pur- 
chase,’’ says Pashby. ‘‘The 
statistics certainly prove the 
success of this program. For 
instance, last year there were 
42 eye injuries reported, the 
year before 53, and in ‘74 and 
‘15, before face protectors 
were widely used, we had 253 
eye injuries and 42 eyes lost.’’ 

Pashby also suggests goal 
tenders not wear moulded 
masks because current 


models fail to meet CSA stan- 
dards 


Over the last three hockey 
seasons, 12 goalies received 
eye injuries. They were all 
wearing moulded masks. Of 
these 12, five eyes were legal- 
ly blinded. Moulded masks, 
especially those not ciistom 
made, do not provide ade- 
quate protection. 

“The new CSA standards 
have been improved and now 
offer sufficient protection for 
goal tenders. We’re also con- 
cerned with the number of 
dental claims. We will be in- 
vestigating these to see what 
improvements can be made.’’ 


Drillers sign B.C. product 


Edmonton Drillers of the 
North American Soccer 
League announced they have 
signed striker Billy Connor to 
assistant general manager 


and director of North 
a 1980 tryout contract. 

Joe Petrone, the Drillers’ 
American player personnel, 
said in a news release the 


Isn’t it time 
to lube your body? 


Most drivers think that if 
they lubricate their engine, 
driveline and chassis once or 
twice a year, they’re doing a 
good job of maintaining their 
car. They’re wrong. There’s a 
lot of other paits that need 
attention too, and the wise 
driver takes care of all of 
them. The wise driver saves a 
lot more money too! 


Moving Parts 

Every moving part of your 
car, from the doors to the gas 
cap, likes attention. Give it, 
and you'll find they work 
easier, won’t rust or squeak, 
and they will last longer. 

In most cases, you don’t 
even need any tools to do the 
job. All you need is a collec- 
tion of the right kinds of 
lubricants (available at most 
auto parts stores) and a few 
rags or heavy duty paper 
towels, : 

Rule of Thumb 

As a general rule of thumb, 
lubricate your body parts (see 
the list below) every time you 
have an oil change or every 

2,500 - 3,150 kilometres. 
You'll probably get rid of a 
lot of those annoying noises 
or squeaks and you've no ex- 
cuse for not taking care of all 
the parts of your car since it’s 
80 easy to do. 


A 30- ST. ALBERT & STURGEON GAZETTE, WEDNESDAY, 


sn Senet aS 


Check the List’ 

If you really want to do a 
good job of taking care of 
your body, check the list 
below. Make sure that you at- 
tend to all the parts at least 
once a year. The dividends 
you'll get in terms of better 
performance simply can’t be 
measured against the effort it 
is going to take. 

For reasons of simplicity, 
the lubrication guide below is 
presented in terms of 
materials required rather 
than car parts. It will help 
make the job a lot easier. 


The List: 

Silicone Spray or Liquid -- 
weather stripping, door and 
window channels, seat tracks, 
hood and trunk closures, 
Spark plug wires and 
distributor caps, battery ter- 
minals, windshield wipers, 
gas cap gaskets, ash tray, 
tracks and gas, clutch and 
brake pedal arms. 

Rubber Preservative -- 
tires, bumper guards, splash 
guards and all rubber fittings. 

General Purpose Oil - 
door hinges, locks, glove 
compartment hinges and 
windshield wiper arms. 

Graphite Spray or Sticks -- 
door and ‘trunk lock 
mechanisms. 

Belt Dressing - all engine 
pully and drive belts.

Not All ; 

Naturally, the foregoing 
does not include all of the car 
parts that should be 
lubricated during the course 
of the year. There are many 
more, and your local auto 
parts professional can help 
you pick out the rest as well 
as advise you on the type of 
lubricant you’ ll require.

Petrone scouted Connor at 
the under-18 national cham- 
pionships in Winnipeg. He’s 
a very aggressive kid and big 
and strong,’’ said Petrone. 

Connor was a member of 
the Canadian youth national 
team and may play on the 
1980 team scheduled to par- 
ticipate in the Pan-American 
Games trials. 

“He’s a good all-round 
athlete,”’ said Petrone. ‘‘He’s 
been successful in hockey, 
football, and golf. It’s a fact 

+ that most soccer players are 
good athletes in other 
sports.”’ 

Connor is set to report to 
the Drillers training camp in 
February, probably at 
Sonoma State College, north 


of San Francisco, where -

ame Farm gets the green light 


By Caria Bit-Walmsley 

A cabinet meeting yester- 
day gave the go-ahead for the 
Alberta Game Farm to move 
to the Red Barn site. 

What was needed was ap- 
proval for significant 
upgrading of the Lily Lake 
road, and the ministers 
agreed to provide up to $2 
million for the road improve- 
ment on three conditions: 
first - that the game farm will 
in fact be developed on the 
site; second - that the MD of 


“Ahhhh...there’s no place 


Sturgeon provide $500,000 as 
their share of the road cost, 
something the MD council 
has approved; and third - that 
the total road cost must not 
exceed $2.5 million. 

MLA Myrna Fyfe con- 
tacted Bill Cochrane late 
Tuesday afternoon with the 
news, and the Gazette 
understands Reeve Bill Flynn 
was also advised. 

The announcement came 
just in time in the light of cur- 
rent activities on the animal 


purchase scene. A represen- 
tative of the Northwest 
Trading Company of Seoul, 
Korea has been making offers 
to Mr. Al Oeming, including 
the purchase of every typetof 
deer and some of the more 
exotic animals necessary for a 
successful game farm. On 
Sunday Mr. Oeming reported 
these offers to Walter Jerram 
and Bill Cochrane, and said 
he would give them till Tues- 
day night to let him know 
their position.

like Alberta”’ 


Walter and Bill contacted 
the Hon. Bud Miller, 
Associated Minister of Public 
Lands, Monday morning and 
the cabinet acted ‘promptly, 
with considerably more aid 
than expected for the road. 
‘We are just delighted with 
his support, and the govern- 
ment’s prompt action,”’ said 
Mr. Cochrane, adding that 
Bud Miller had encouraged 
them from the outset. 

The MD, at first unwilling 
to commit any funds to a 


“Well I'm glad that’s finally settled. It’s a little disconcerting not knowing whether 
your next address will be Seoul, Korea or New York”. 


development it felt would 
benefit all of Alberta, decid- 
ed to limit its share to 
$500,000, the amount needed 
to accumulate land for right 
of ways to widen the road. 
Ever since,Mr. Jerram and 
his partner Bill Cochrane, 
owners of the Red Barn dine 
and dance complex eight 
miles north of Bon Accord, 
decided in mid-August to 
take on the development of a 
new game farm, the project 
has had a perplexing history. 
The government’s new 
stand was a reversal of its 
earlier position which in- 
dicated that the MD would 
have to pick up a 
“substantial portion” of the 
cost to upgrade the road, 
because it was an MD road. 
The government, said Mr. 
Kroeger in an_ early 
September letter, was not 
prepared to pay for a road 
not part of the secondary or 
primary highway system, 
which did not connect with 
any major highway except 


Highway 28. 

At a public hearing Oc- 
tober 11th, where almost 100 
Sturgeon residents turned up 
to show théir support, Mrs. 
Fyfe explained that the 
government's stand had been 
misinterpreted, 

Since then, support has 
continued to pour in to MD 
offices, the latest, coming 
from the Edmonton Conven- 
tion Bureau and the Sturgeon 
Regional Recreation Council. 

There is no doubt that Bill 
and Walter are going ahead 
with their game farm plans. 
They had already made ar- 
rangements to visit a number 
of game farms and zoos in 
January and February, and 
will now go ahead, Winnipeg, 
Toronto, Okanagan, Bush 
Garden in Florida, the 
Houston Texas game farm 
and Calgary have all been 
contacted. ‘‘When we let 
them know we were coming 
to see what we could learn, 
they were very co-operative,” 
Mr. Jerram told the Gazette. 


Home Sweet Home 


It’s doubtful those doing 
time in the Edmonton 
Penitentiary look upon the 
place as home sweet home, 
but nevertheless that’s just 
what the Feds are claiming 
the institution is. 

The federal Solicitor 
General’s department has 
done just that by claiming on 
its tax bill that the institution 
located in MD Sturgeon is a 
“residential development.”’ 
By doing so the Feds have 
dodged a $28,000 tax bill 
assessed by the MD and an- 
ticipated in the MD's budget 
for 1979. 

Edmonton Penitentiary, 
located on Highway 15, was 


assessed on a full mill rate for 
institutional endeavors but 
because it classes its prisons 
as residential developments 
across Canada, payment was 
only made on a reduced mill 
rate. 


“We had a number of 
discussions with them 
previous to the construction 
of the penitentiary, and the 
mthod of tax payment was 
never brought up,’’ said 
Secretary Treasurer Gilbert 
Boddez. ‘When we finally 
Atd.bring it up, we were told 
that this was the way they 
paid out east, and it was how 
they would pay here."’ 


Municipalities at work on land use bylaws ° 


Within the next few mon- 
ths, municipalities with 
populations over 1,000 will 
be preparing to switch over 
from the familiar zoning 
bylaws to a land use 
classification. As a planner 
for munivipalities and sum- 
mer villages in the MD, Mr. 
Walker will be assisting coun- 
cils to draft land use bylaws 
which became a requirement 
with the passage of the new 
Alberta Planning Act in 
1977. They must be in place 
by April 1, 1980. 

‘The former zoning 
bylaw, was somewhat restric- 
tive, designating specific land 
classifications in certain 
areas, while previous 
development control bylaws 
allowed municipalities some 
flexibility when dealing with 
individual applications,’’ said 
Mr. Walker. 

Zoning divides a 
municipality into a number 
of districts, and controls 
development by regulating 
the land use, height and bulk 
of buildings, density of 
population and parking re- 
quirements in each zone. This 
approach should ensure com- 
patibility of land use and 
buildings within any par- 
ticular area. 

Such specific designations, 
however, give the zoning 
bylaw little built in flexibility 
and administrators little lee- 
way in considering 
developments on their merits 
except in areas of conditional 
uses or under development 
control. 

All municipalities in the 
MD, except Legal, use zones 


to indicate developments 
allowable in their areas. 
Legal uses a development 
control bylaw, which has no 
specific designations like a 
zoning bylaw, so that each 
development is considered on 
its merit. 

Land use combines both 
permitted and discretionary 
uses in one bylaw, and will 
allow common 
developments, like single 
family dwellings, to be ad- 
ministered easily, while the 
more complex developments 
can be examined more close- 
ly. 


LANDOWNERS BE 
AWARE 


To the lay person, the land 
use bylaw may be technically 
confusing, appearing to be 
change for the sake of 
change. But the implications 

anyone building now and 
ing to carryover the 
development past April 1, 
will be immediate, said Mr. 
Walker. 

“The person’s develop- 
ment will become a non- 
conforming use, and any 
developments after that will 
have to conform to the land 
use bylaw and will require a 
permit under the new 
classifications and restric- 
tions,’’ said Mr. Walker. 


PEOPLE MUST BE 
INFORMED 


One of the compulsory 
aspects of the new bylaw, 
too, is to inform people who 
could be affected by the 


“We want to break even”’

Meals going upin 
school cafeteria 


NAMAO .- Students at 
Sturgeon Composite face 
their second cafeteria price 
hike since September. 

An immediate 10 per cent 
hike on all food served in the 
cafeteria was approved at a 
recent Board meeting. Prices 
went up at the start of the 
school year and this second 
increase will mean paying 15 
to 25 cents more for most 
items. 

Inflation is the reason, said 
principal Norval Horner, 
especially for meat and 
vegetables, up 20 per cent in 
the last few months alone. 

“Right at the moment 
we're operating at a loss and 
we don’t want the people be- 

; faxed for the purpose of 

ucation to have to pick up 
the tab,’’ said Mr. Horner. 
‘We don’t want to make 
money, just break even and 
cover expenses.’’ 

As it is, he added, the 
\cafeteria will be in a deficit 
position this December, and 
to break even, a further five 
pet cent increase is scheduled 
for Sept. Ist. The two in- 
creases will be the minimum 
needed to balance the 
cafeteria operation by 
December 1980. 

The cafeteria only serves 


about 25 per cent of 200 of 
the school’s 900 students, and 
with no vending machines all 
food is sold through the 
cafeteria. Prices will be 
higher for meat and fresh 
fruits particularly though 
sandwiches and soups will 
also go up. 

Where the price increase 
may hurt isin the daily 
special, a full course meal, 
which now costs $1.50, and 
will go up to $1.75, a higher 
increase than the 10 per cent, 
to make returning change 
easier, said Mr. Horner, 

Other favorites, like chips 
and gravy, will go up from 55 
to 65 cents. The price increase 
here was only one alternative, 
said Mr. Horner, Other 
schools serve smaller portions 
for the same price, but 
decreasing the portion was 
not favored by the cafeteria 
staff. 

Students have not been too 
vocal against the price hike, 
said Mr. Horner, partly 
because the school has still 
not received the official go- 


“ahead from the Board. He 


doubts though, that it will 
really affect them, ‘‘after all 
students always have 
money.”’ 


ot ‘land use bylaw is 
basically an implementation 
tool for each municipality’s 
general municipal plan, but 
they do not necessarily have 
to have their plans im- 
plemented before the land 
use bylaw. In Sturgeon, only 
Bon Accord and the MD 
have officially adopted 
general plans, though all 


must be in place by December 
1982. 

Smaller municipalities have 
the advantage, said Mr. 
Walker, in that planners can 
have more direct contact with 
elected officials. In larger 
centres, like Edmonton and 
Calgary, there is little interac- 
tion between council and the 
planners until the latter 
Stages. : 


But only for 30% of mark 
Bring back departmental 
exams, says Board 


Students in Sturgeon 
School Division could soon 
be biting their nails and like 
their older brothers and 
sisters did not too many years 
ago, if the Department of 
Education accepts a recom- 
mendation to reintroduce 
departmental examinations. 

The Board is expected to 
approve a trustee report this 
evening, calling for reinstitu- 
tion of the exams for all 
grade 12 students. The two- 
page report is in response to a 
Department of Education 
study entitled Minister’s Ad- 
visory Committee on Student 
Achievement (MACOSA), 
which determined that 
departmentals should be rein- 
troduced, and worth 50 per- 
cent of the final mark. The 
Sturgeon trustees disagreed, 
and recommended that exams 
represent 30 per cent with 70 
per cent determined by local 
school districts. 

The MACOSA report, 
however, did not totally en- 
dorse departmentals as used 
prior to 1973, the year they 
were dropped. For the past 
six years exams have been us- 
ed on appeal by students, 
unhappy with the final grade 
assigned by their school. The 
exam, administered by the 
Department of Education, 
represented 30% of the 
grade. 

Two weaknesses in former 
exams were noted in the 
MACOSA report. Consisten- 
cy was considered a problem 
as tests had tended to stress 
different sections of the 
course from year to year, 
with the report also question- 
ing whether a new set of test 
questions should be im- 
plemented for each new test 
date. Unless these were 
changed, the report conclud- 
ed, departmentals should not 
be reimplemented. 

Rather than have commit- 
tee members recommend how 
these weaknesses could be 
modified, copies of the report 
were sent to individual school 
divisions for their comments. 
The opinion of the Sturgeon 
Board was departmentals 
could be returned if exams 
tested all components of each 
core subject. The provincial 
test mark would represent 
less than one third of the 
students’ final mark. The 
larger part would be deter- 
mined by a subjective evalua- 
tion of students by teachers. 

Trustees also recommend- 
ed that examinations be ad- 
ministered and mayked by the 
Department of Education, 
and be administered for core 
subjects, lasting only one 
semester. An appeal proedure

has also been proposed in the 
form of supplemental exams, 
a change from when one ex- 
am meant either pass or fail. 


Preparation in developing 
a draft bylaw, said Mr. 
Walker, is probably the most 
important step. It essentially 
involves, reviewing 
requirements of the Planning 
Act, identifying difficiencies 
in current bylaws and discuss- 
ing formal establishment of a

has called for a more 
lequitable distribution of oil 
for Division rdads, 

Mr. Kluthe who represents 
Division 5, questioned public 
works superintendent Alf 
Mabbutt, Monday, on what 
he felt was an oiling decrease 
in his Division. During the 
superintendent’s monthly 
report, Mr. Kluthe pointed 
out a $90,000 difference bet- 
ween Areas 5 and 6 ‘‘when I 
thought we'd finally got 
around to doing some work 
on Area 5,’”’ 

Oiling in Area 5, including 
patrolling, general construc- 
tion, machine time, labor and 
grade work, totalled about 
$155,000, while the same 
work totalled about $245,000 
in Area 6. He suggested going 
back a few years in the files to 
compare this year’s figures 
with past years, to prove that 
little progress had been made. 

Mr. Mabbutt defended the 
figures by noting that some 
roads cost more to oil, gravel 
and grade than others. He did 
agree that a new allocation 
method, perhaps based on a 
set oil allocation in each divi- 
sion or on an amount per 
mile, might be looked into by 
the department. 


LANDFILL BYLAW 
PASSES 


A bylaw authorizing the 
establishment of the Sturgeon 
Sanitary Landfill Authority 
was passed Monday. Reeve 
Bill Flynn will act as the MD 
representative on the commit- 
tee, and the five larger 
municipalities will have to 
pass the bylaw and appoint 
their own members to the 
committee. 

As a legal body, the 
authority may now apply for 
grants from Alberta Environ- 
ment.

ANOTHER FARM ANIMAL MUTILATED 


RCMP in Redwater are investigating the mutilation kill- 
ing of a two year old heifer on a farm near Newbrook, 
about 20 miles north of Redwater. 

According to Sgt. Bunn of the Redwater Detachment, 
part of the animal’s tongue was cut off, as well as some sex 
organs. 

Other areas may have been cut, but RCMP members are 
not sure, as a coyote in the area got to the animal and began 
devouring portions of it. 

The animal is believed to have been lying in the field for 
two to four days before being discovered. 

The mutilation is the third in the area in just over a week. 
Two cattle were found on the Chester Crozier farm near the 
Namao airbase the weekend before. A 22 month old heifer 
in the stages of calving and a six year old jersey cow were 
discovered in the fields of the Crozier farm one day apart. 
RCMP in St. Albert are still investigating these two in- 
cidents, although it’s possible they are related. As in the 
Newbrook mutilation, parts of the tongue and sex organs 
were removed cleanly from the animals. 

Redwater RCMP are still investigating. 


SOW BUTCHERED 


A complaint was received by the Redwater RCMP about 
a sow that was butchered on a nearby farm on the weekend. 

All that remained after the incident was the stomach area 
of the pig. 

There are no clues in this case, but the detachment is still 
trying to come up with an answer. 


PEDESTRIAN KILLED ON HIGHWAY 


Redwater RCMP are still investigating an accident in 
which a 42 year old Smoky Lake man was killed while walk- 
ing on Highway 28, 5.5 kilometres east of Radway. 

Donald Wolanski was walking on the shoulder area of 
the highway when he was struck by a passing vehicle in the 
early hours of November 11. 

According to RCMP, the road surface was icy and light 
snow had fallen prior to the mishap. 


TRUCKER DIES IN RIG” 


Ronald Jewell,*30, of Edmonton died in his semi-trailer 
truck unit last Wednesday morning after the unit left the 
highway and burned. 

The accident occurred on Highway 63 near Abee about 
8:15 a.m. 

Jewell was trapped in the cab of the vehicle and perished 
in the flames and smoke. 

Redwater RCMP are still investigating. 


REDWATER POLICE CELLS DAMAGED 


Two rowdy persons, held in custody in the Redwater 
RCMP cells, have been charged in connection with the 
damaging of the holding room they were held in. 

Sgt. Bunn of the Redwater detachment told the Gazette 
the two persons stripped some door molding off the wall, 
and smashed them through the observation window. 


BREAK-INS CONCERN POLICE 


Redwater RCMP are somewhat concerned over the 
amount of break-ins in the area this year. 

Two more were recently reported. 

The front window of E and S Motorcycle in Redwater 
was found kicked in Sunday morning, and the Radway 
Medical Clinic was broken into on November 13. A quanti- 
ty of drugs and other items were stolen from the premises, 
but RCMP have recovered some of the stolen goods. Both 
incidents are still under investigation. 

RCMP advise citizens to report anytning suspicious, as 
the lack of reports is making convictions hard to come by. 


DANCE GETS CHAOTIC 


A dance in Thorhild on the weekend proved to be a hec- 
tic one for the Redwater RCMP, as several liquor related 
charges were handed out. 

A crowd of about 300 youths attended the dance, which 
also featured a three vehicle mishap outside the hall. One 
person received about 20 stitches to close a cut in the head. 


QUIET IN MORINVILLE 


According to Sgt. Farley of the Morinville Detachment, 
the last week went by without much incident, other than the 
routine work they normally run across. 

There is one thing that is making the good sergeant smile. 
A new secretary will arrive in the New Year, and that will 
take a load off the members at the detachment. 
Apparently, some members aren’t too good at typing. 


MORINVILLE -- Council 
has tabled the Recreation 
Master Plan until further 
revisions suggested by 
residents can be reviewed and 
included in the draft plan, 
but the enthusiasm which ac- 
companied its birth had dim- 
med since the public meeting 
with town residents late last 
month. 

The plan, once considerea 
a blueprint for the upgrading 
and construction of recrea- 
tion facilities over the next 
five years, has been reduced 
to a guideline which will be 
reviewed and updated yearly. 

Residents at a public forum 
October 24, with council and 
Morinville Recreation Board 
representatives, accepted the 
general direction of the plan. 
But they questioned whether 
the town would be able to ac- 
complish everything within 
the price tags and time lines 
proposed. 

The $50,000 cost of a 
swimming pool, for example, 
scheduled for construction 
within the next two years, 
was of particular concern to 
residents. No one questioned 
the need for the pool, but it 
was pointed out that the sug- 
gested price was 
“‘unrealistic’’ and that to pay 
for it plus all the other pro- 
posed projects would require 
hefty tax increases. 

Recreation Board represen- 
tatives called for a committee 
from the floor to determine 
cost figures for a pool over 
the next two years, and report 
back to the Board, which will 


then submit the figures to 
council for their considera- 
tion. 

The plan has also had some 
problems in council. A mo- 
tion to adopt the draft plan 
August 28 failed because of a 
tie vote over the recreation 
levy. A $250 levy is now 
charged to developers in new 
subdivisions for the purpose 
of expanding or building 


By Carla Bit-Walmsley 

A few residents in 
Sturgeon, charged penalties 
for sending in their tax 
payments after the September 
30 deadline, have had their 
penalty cancelled and a re- 
fund will be in the mail short- 
ly. The refund, however will 
only apply to envelopes 
postmarked October Ist or 
earlier, and any payments 
received after that date will 
have to pay the $94 penalty. 
MD council felt this was 
the only fair thing to do con- 


sidering the last day in 
September was a Sunday. 
Four letters, complaining 


about the penalty were read 
out at MD council Monday, 
and while at first, council 
seemed reluctant to give relief 
to any late payments, after 


parks and_ recreation 
facilities, playgrounds and 
school grounds. The plan 
sought to increase this levy to 
$750 but with the tie vote the 
motion was lost. 

The recreation levy still re- 
mains as it was first adopted 
in council, and the basic 
outline of the plan will 
change little from its draft 
form. 


Once the revisions dealing 
with time lines and projected 
costs are incorporated, the 
plan will be formally adopted 
by council. The town will at 
least, then, have an outline 
detailing what recreation 
facilities are needed, but as 
residents pointed out, it is a 
process which will un- 
doubtedly take longer than 
five years. 


But, “we have deadlines” - Boddez 


Refunds some tax 
penalties 


some discussion, it was decid- 
ed to give some taxpayers a 
break. 

The letters contended that 
no notice had been given of a 
possible interest penalty on 
late taxes, but Secretary- 
Treasurer Gilbert Boddez, 
who is against any refund, 
claimed that deadlines should 
be respected. Some payments 
were received as late as Oc- 
tober 4, and these will have to 
pay the $94 penalty. Asked 
for the number of taxpayers

Dairy power plants 
may qualify for 
rebate 


The Agricultural Develop- 
ment Corporation’s (ADC) 
Dairy Development Program 
was modified recently to 
allow standby power plants 
to qualify for an incentive 
rebate if they are purchased 
with an Alberta Farm 
Development Loan (AFDL), 

It was decided that a stand- 
by power unit is an integral 
part of today’s mechanized 
milking system because of the 
frequency of power interrup- 
tions in some rural areas of 
the province. Such plants are 
the only practical method of 
ensuring that daily milking 
operations can be maintained 
and that the milk can be pro- 
perly stored.

well as information on how 
to apply for a loan or to 
qualify for an_ incentive 
rebate can be obtained from

said council, would have no 
mercy from the MD, but 
because some letters could 
have been posted on the Fri- 
day, and left in the post of- 
fice over the weekend, these 
people should not be penaliz- 
ed, 

“That was a weekend 
situation and I could see 
where they would be left in 
the post office and then dealt 
with on Monday, October 
1,”’ said Councillor Lawrence 
Kluthe. ‘‘It would be 
reasonable to accept those 
postmarked on that date.’’ 

The penalty will be enforc-

the late payments was to send 
in postdated cheques. These, 
said Mr. Boddez could be 
kept for as long as one

SCHOOL BOARDS 
HAVE DEADLINES 
TOO! 


The MD’s stand is not easy 
to understand, in light of its 
own continuing battle with 
Sturgeon School Board over 
interest charges on late 
payments. When the MD's 
$157,000 June 15 school re- 
quisition arrived 25 days late, 
the School Board, forced to 
take out a short term loan to 
make up the deficit, slapped 
the MD with a $4,000 interest 
charge. 

The MD has continued to 
claim it was not informed of 
a possible penalty on late 
payments, and has gone as 
far as to charge that the in- 
terest charge is illegal under 
the Schoo! Act. No one at 
Monday’s council meeting 
brought up this situation, 
which has caused a good deal 
of bad feeling between the 
School Division and the MD, 
and may lead to formal ac- 
tion by the school board to 
collect the penalty.

Cardiff then and now 


District woman recalls booming coal town 


By Florence Vranas 

In the early part of this 
century many coal ~qines 
sprang up around th D 
vince. Many soon became im- 
portant coal producers and 
Cardiff, located three miles 
southeast of Morinville, was 
one of these; 

The area, which takes its 
name from Cardiff Wales, 
one of the great coal-shipping 
ports of the world, had its 
first mines appear in the year 
1902. Soon three mines 
flourished side-by-side as 
miners toiled to extract the 
precious resource. 

The largest mine was the 
Cardiff Coal Company which 
employed 280 men, 250 of 
whom worked the 
underground shafts. It pro- 
duced 1,200 tons (45 boxcar 
loads) of coal per day. Coal 
carts were powered by an 
underground stable of 21 
horses. The horses pulled the 
carts along the underground 
rails while the miners loaded 
coal. A 150 horsepower 
generator in the boiler room 
produced the electricity 
necessary to power the lift 
drawing the coal-laden carts 
to the tipple on the surface. 
The generator also powered 
the shaker loading the 
railway cars. 

The Banner and Alberta 
mines were of smaller 
capacities with each employ- 
ing about 125 men. In 1917, 
one of the top production 
years the three mines combin- 
ed for a total output of 1,700 
box cars of coal in the month 
of January alone. 


STRIKES LOOMING 


Two years later the first of 
ttwo strikes to hit the mines 
would take place. (The se- : 
cond occurred in 1922). The 
miners formed a_ wildcat 
union (it was never recogniz- 
ed by the companies) and 
picketed the sites in demand 
of higher wages. Police were 
called to bring order to the 
situation and one former resi- 
dent (now deceased) 
remembers four policemen 
armed with rifles patrolling 
the main road through Car- 
diff. One lawman was 
reported to have been injured 
by the militant strikers. 

Many men had come to the 
Cardiff mines in hopes of 
receiving better wages. Most 


Fire destroyed the 60 room hotel in 1922. Though not licensed, the hotel was certain- | 


lived in hastily built small 
homes, some located on com- 
pany lands. They were of 
mixed ethnic backgrounds, 
yet lived harmoniously 
together always ready to help 
each other in times of need. 
The estimated population of 
the area which also included 
Pittsburgh was close to 1,000. 


TOWN GROWS BUSIER 
AND BIGGER 


And not only miners resid- 
ed in the community. 
Tradesmen were also needed 
to meet the growing com- 
munity’s needs. The town 
boasted a 60-room hotel 
which included a large lobby, 
and kitchen and a_ very 
spacious dining room. Ex- 
cellent meals were provided 
by the Chinese cook. Mine 

aders conducted their 

eetings in the attic over one 
section of the building. 

The hotel, destroyed by 
fire in 1922, was not licensed 
but, that did not stop the 
miners from acquiring 
alcohol (including homemade 
brews) elsewhere. 

Facilities in Cardiff at that 
time included a United 
Church, a one room school 
(it was eventually replaced 
with a two room unit), a 
boarding house, pool room, 
butcher shop, livery stable 
and several stores (one of 
which contained a dance hall 
at the rear), The miners 
themselves formed an or- 
chestra and played music for 
the dances. Just out of town 
Nel’s establishment provided 
another entertainment for the 
weary miners. 

The mines’ production 
began a decline after 1922 
and most of the people who 
had earlier flocked to the area 
moved away. What was once 
a large town soon dwindled 
to hamlet size. 


AFTER 
WORLD WAR 11 


In 1945 Sundance Mines 
Limited came into beisrg. In- 
vestigations had proven 
significant amounts of coal 
remained around the old 
mine workings and a new 
strip mine went into opera- 
tion. At first tremendous dif- 
ficulties were encountered 
when old mine workings cav- 
ed in under the weight of the 


ly a gathering center for many mine labourers. 


huge 30 ton machines work- 
ing the pits. Water drainage 
was also a problem because 
of the old tunnels and shafts. 

Gradually, however, pro- 
duction levels increased and 
the mine began supplying 
coal to not only the surroun- 
ding district, but to the power 
house in Edmonton, and 
points in Northern Alberta, 
Saskatchewan, Manitoba and 
even western Ontario. 

Many local men were 
employed as labourers and 
truckers. Many others, par- 
ticularly from Saskatchewan 
helped swell the population 
once again. 

Labourers made 85¢ per 
hour and were provided with 
meals at a large cookhouse. 

In 1951 fire almost com- 
pletely destroyed the mine 
tipple but production con- 
@iveed near full capacity us- 
ing an old tipple. Construc- 
tion began on & bigger and 
better tipple which would br- 
ing capacity to 1,000 tons per 
day from 800 tons per day. It 
would eventually be burned 
also, this time purposely for 
reasons of safety in 1978. 

A smart new mine office 
was also added at this time. It 
boasted a new Printomatic 
Scale, the only one of its kind 
in the province at that time. 
The scale printed weights on 
a ticket visible to both the 
trucker and scale operator. 
The trucker never had to 
leave the cab of his vehicle. 

Natural gas spelled the end 
to Cardiff’s most recent coal 
boom. The Edmonton Power 
Plant converted from coal 
and many homes also began 
to switch to the efficient and 
clean burning fuel. Once 
more mining ceased at Car- 
diff. It’s not likely to begin 
again. 


TODAY - ECHOES 


In 1976 H.M.S. Properties 
purchased a 160 acre parcel 
of the Levi Parker Estate. 
Mr. Parker was the father of 
Mrs. Winnifred Stewart, 
founder of the Winnifred 
Stewart School for Retarded 
Children in Edmonton. The 
land was registered as the 
subdivision Cardiff Echoes. 

The development includes 
274 single family residential 
lots and one four-acre com- 
mercial lot. It is the 
developer’s firm desire that

the entire project be com- 
pleted in 1980. One hundred 
and twenty-one lots have 
been sold to date. 

Windemere Developers 
purchased 94 of these lots in 
1978 and began construction 
homes. Thirty-one are now 
under construction and 63 
others have already been 
sold. A well situated near the 
old Cardiff Mine site supplies 
water to the subdivision as 
well as’ the industrial park 
just south of Morinville. 
Sewage is piped to the lagoon 
two miles north of Cardiff 
and refuse is deposited one 
mile south in the MD landfill 
site. The landfill site will soon 
be replaced by a new facility 
two miles east and one half 
mile south of Morinville. 

A park and golf course are 
presently under construction 
on the reclaimed mine site. 
The land was also the site of 
the 60-room hotel mentioned 
above. The area is now used 
for cross country skiing and 
the annual Sturgeon Snow 
Golf competition. The steer- 
ing committee of the Cardiff 
Golf arid Country Club 


reports that an 18-hole golf 
course should be in playable 
condition by the spring or 
early summer of 1981. 


CLUB WORKS FOR 
COMMUNITY 


The Cardiff Community 
‘Club was formed in 1975 and 
this year has become a 
recognized registered club 
making it eligible for govern- 
ment grants. The club’s 
primary objective is to pro- 
mote better recreational 
facilities in Cardiff, a sports 
‘ground and community cen- 
tre being of major impor- 
tance, At the present time all 
Programs and craft courses 
must be held in residents’ 
homes due to the lack of any 
facility. A building commit- 
tee has been appointed and is 
mow investigating the matter. 
(Cardiff has long been known 
for its good quality ball teams 
but, since the sale of the 
school grounds there has not 


been a place to play, Early 


residents of Cardiff swam in 
the summer and played 
hockey and skated in the 


winter at a place known as 
the ‘‘drag-line,’’ a deep body 
of water on the old mine 
holdings. 

It is hoped that this friend- 
‘ly and growing community 
will soon gain the facilities 
which many sutrounding 
\communites now enjoy. 

' Once more the people 

of mixed ethnic backgroun: 
and are willing to work 
‘together for the betterment 
of all.

provinces planted only 8.5 
million, representing a 14 per 
cent decline from the almost 
10 million acres that were 
planted last year. In addition 
to this acreage cutback, poor 
moisture conditions in parts 
of Alberta and Manitoba and 
in large areas of Saskat- 
chewan reduced the average 


Prairie barley yield to 40.5, 


bushels per acre from 1978's 
45.2 bushels per acie. The 


small acreage plus the lower, 


yield has resulted in Canada’s 
1979 barley output totalling 


375.4 million bushels (8.17) 


million tonnes) which is down 
sharply from the just over 
477 million bushels (10.39 
million tonnes) recorded in 


1978. 

Mr. Malmberg points out 
that this reduction in produc- 
tion, coupled with better 
barley quotas, means a 
relatively tight balance bet- 
ween Western feed grain sup- 
ply and demand and higher 
non-board barley prices than 
those of this time last year. 
The increase in initial 
payments for feed barley has 
raised farmers’ expectation 
: also tends to increase 
card prices, especially 
when supplies are tight. 

Mr. Malmberg: -expects 
non-board barley prices ‘in 
Alberta to remain strong at 
least until next spring and 
forecasts that they will exceed

says they may even reach 
$2.50 per bushel at some 
southern Alberta points. 
Delivery quotas for barley 
are also likely to be better 
than those of last year 
because Canadian Wheat 
Board exports are well ahead 
of the year-ago level and are 


likely to remain ahead in the 
foreseeable future. 

World barley prices, while 
not as high as had been 
hoped in mid-summer, will 
still be higher than those of 
recent years. Mr. Malmberg

OPut the racquets 
Tents courts 


delayed until spring 


MORINVILLE - Residents 
hoping to take advantage of 
an unusually mild fall to take 


in a few sets of tennis had , 


better put away the whites | 
and sweat bands and lock up 
their racquets. Council has’ 
tabled a decision to tender 
the new courts. 

There was hope that the 
courts, to be located at the 
southeast corner of Georges 
P. Vanier School, might be in 
before winter, but more 
urgent items during the past 
three months have pushed the 
tennis courts further down on| 
council’s priority list. 

Council did deal briefly 
with the courts last week, in- 
creasing the size slightly to 
accommodate additional 
drainage. The delay will 
allow more time to determine 

‘Vyhat the town is willing to 
spend, and a_ negotiating 
position on how much local 
labor and equipment could 
be used to save money. 

Initial estimates presented 
August 29 were about 
$60,000 for the 115 square, 
foot facility. A bit shocked, | 
council asked the develop- 
ment committee to come up 
with a more reasonable 
figure, suggesting there might 
be room for up to 50 per cent 
savings if fencing material, 
already purchased, volunteer | 
labor and local materials and 
equipment were used.

Beef Grades 
compared 


A joint government- 
producer study at Agriculture 
Canada in Ottawa has found 
that consumers are able to 
detect significant differences 
between Canada A and C 
grade beef. 

The project, partially fund- 
ed by the Canadian Cat- 
tlemen’s Association, was set 

p to see if some Grade C 
actually merited a 
hi grade. 

Afté?y extensive consumer 
tests and evaluation by. a 
panel of experienced food 
judges, the department con- 
cluded that meat from the 
Grade C carcasses was not as 
tender as the Grade A meat.

Construction to proceed 


Compromise reached on Gibbons liquor store 


The on again, off again, li- 
quor store slated for con- 
struction in Gibbons is on 
again. Alberta Housing and 
Public Works has reached an 
agreement with Edmonton 
Savings and Credit Union, 
developers of an adjoining 
portion of the commercial 
property on the town’s main 
street. 

Credit union represen- 
tatives have agreed to accept 
plans providing for a small 
set back, though nowhere 
near the 60 feet requested. 
Alberta Housing has also 
compromised by deciding not 
to build a 3.6 foot solid ce- 
ment retaining wall between 
the two properties, which 
they had claimed was 
necessary to unload trucks. 

Construction of the store 
has had a fairly rocky road 
ever since it was proposed in 
September, and at one time, 
it looked as though the town 
might lose the much wanted 
facility. Two stop work 
orders were issued in mid- 
September when council 
discovered construction had 
begun without council ap- 
proval of the plans and 
without a building permit. 

Edmonton Savings and 
Credit Union objected to the 
proposed design of the liquor 
store, which did not conform 
on the site planned for 62 
foot set back because the 
store would have no parking 
in the rear. Their intent was 
to develop their property into 
12,000 square feet of com- 
mercial and office space. 
Council did tend to favor 
front parking and passed aj 
motion requesting the liquor 
store to move back 60 feet to 
conform with the rest of the 
development. 


The Last 


By Katie Brandle 
A regular meeting of Gib- 
bons Senior Citizens was held 
in the Dew Drop Inn, 
November 8. 
35 members answered roll 
call and there were three 
visitors: Laura Leek from the 


and Clotilde Somerville from 
Spruce View Manor. 
For the afternoon’s enter-, 


The development, 


now determined to settle the issue 


half complete, already houses before time ran out on the 
the town office, a drug store construction season. 


and a bank, all with front 
parking. As designed 
originally, the liquor store 
would have been pushed up 
against the sidewalk and 
would have been the only 
part of the development with! 
rear parking. 

By October 17, the situa-! 
tion had come to a head, with 
Walter Kubrak from Alberta 
Housing and Public Works 
on one side; Kurt Heise, Kurt 
Azarko and Victor 
Nakonechny representing the 
credit union on the other, 
and council mediating in the 
middle. 

Mr. Kubrak insisted that 
council’s motion requesting 
the set back ‘‘denied the pro- 
ject’ and asked it be rescind- 
ed. He presented new plans 
outlining a small set back, 
though still not allowing for 
front parking, and a 3.6 ce- 
ment wall between the pro- 
perties, This set back was im- 
possible he said since trucks 
would have to load from the 
front. Council accepted the 
new plans over the protests of 
the Credit Union, who in- 
sisted that without the set 
back and front parking their 
project would have to be 
scrapped. As a compromise 
the Credit Union suggested 
buying the liquor store pro- 
perty, developing it and then 
leasing it back to Alberta 
Housing and Public Works. 

The suggestion met with 


Determination paid off, 


because construction has 
already begun on the new li- 
quor store. While it is not as 
far back as Edmonton Sav- 


ings and Credit would have 
liked, the cement retaining 
wall will not be built. 

A building permit has been 


issued to Alberta Housing 
and completion is scheduled 
for September, 1980. 


Calahoo couple celebrate Ruby anniversary 


By Liz McLeod 

With all this beautiful 
weather it seemed natural to 
get out and celebrate. 

And since it seems folks 
don’t get together unless 
there’s cause for a celebra- 
tion, Douglas and Lillian 
McLeod from Spruce Grove, 
Alberta and Bernie and 
Sharon McKinnon of 
Quesnel, B.C., decided and 
put on a dance and supper, to 
help their parents - Pete and 
Liz McLeod - remember their 
40th wedding anniversary, on 
November 17, 1979, in 
Onoway Community Hall. 

Refreshments and nibblers 
were served throughout, until 
it was time for the buffet sup- 
per, which all enjoyed. 

Pete’s nephew Mr. 
Harold Wolfe from Edmon- 
ton was the congenial master 
of ceremonies. 

The Travelling Rangers 
provided the good oldtime 
music while Onoway Elks 
Lodge members managed the 
bar, and the Onoway W.I. 
ladies group set out the food 
which was prepared by the 
honored couple and their 
good neighbors, friends and 


little enthusiasm from Mr. _ relatives. 


Kubrak, who commented {} 


that the credit union had 
about ‘‘a 15 per cent chance’’ 
of convincing the liquor 
board of their proposal. Both 
parties left unsatisfied but. 


Round-Up 


tainment, bingo was played 
for grocery prizes, with Joe 
Hostyn calling all the right 
numbers. 

A bountiful lunch was sup- 
plied by Joe Hostyn, Katie 
Morin and Stella Lamoureux. 

Thank you friends for all 
the goodies. 

The next regular meeting 
will be held November 22. I 
hope to see you all there.

they came to visit their son, 
Robert E. Keller and family 
in Rolling Hills, it was so nice 
for them to come along and 
enjoy the evening. 

And we must not forget 
two very fine able bodied 
neighbors who knew the 
bride when she was a child - 
Mrs. H. Armenia Cunn- 
ingham, 87 years old, and 
Mr. Arthur J. Hillyer, 97 
years old from Clymont, 


Alberta and how nice to 
renew acquaintances with 
them also. Also present were 
Olaf Valan, 85 years old and 
his good wife Signe who 


A large crowd of friends, relatives and neighbors jam- 


celebrated their 50th wedding 
anniversary last February. 
Besides the above mention- 
ed, the 300, more or less, 
came from Mayerthorpe, 
Hinton, Edmonton, Calmar,

Saskatchewan, Gibbons,

Thank you’s are in order 
and first and foremost a great 
big thank you to our children 
for arranging this gala event 
and to each and everyone 
who helped in any way to 
make this a day to remember. 
We were sorry that Bernie, 
Sharon and Dawn couldn’t 
be present, and it just wasn’t 
possible to have everyone we 
would like to have invited in 
one hall. 
Many thanks to all of you 
who came to help us celebrate 
this happy 40th anniversary.

By Margarette Atkinson 
Yes, do come to my teepee. 
These were a wonderful 

way for the tribes of Indians 

ito live comfortably and more 
sanitary and clean, than some 
housing I’ve seen, on modern 
reserves. 

First of all, strong poles, 


great wide, ‘“‘live-in,’’ area, 
‘Depending on the number of 
poles, one could have a very 
large’? area, or smaller. 
en animal hides were stret- 
hed and placed all around 
ithe poles, with a flap to serve 
at the ‘‘opening’’ (between 
poles) for a doorway. 

The ‘‘paintings’’ on the 
outside of each teepee, were 
done with special ‘‘dyes’’ all 
tifade by the ‘‘Squaws,’’ or 
daughters, from berries, 
plants or certain barks. The 
colors stayed in the hides, 
always, as they went, from 
one generation to the next. 


The pattern of paintings, 
indicated many » some 
marked the teepee of a great 
hunter, a warrior or someone 
who was ‘‘especially’’ great. 
Symbols at the base or bot- 
tom indicated one certain 
tribe of families. 

The opening at the top was 
left because the ‘‘cooking 
fire’’ was inside and smoke 
escaped through the hole. 

Many hides were strewn 
around in the teepee, some 
with soft fur. 

A big iron cooking pot was 
usually hung over the open 
fire. ‘‘Bannock’’ filled with 
chopped, dried berries, was 
propped up beside the glow- 
ing embers baking. A great 
“*blackened,’’ kettle boiled 
for the tea. Tea was a favored 
beverage of the Indians, as it 


gave strength as well as 
warmth to the hunters ... and 
a’ ‘‘quietness of spirit’’ as 


well. As I shared tea, with 
these people a comforting 


aura of peacefullness filled 
my whole ‘‘being”’, listening 
|to the quiet, soft voices, as 
the Indian families conversed 

.. around the warm glow of 
the fire. 

We sat on furs and 
‘home-made’ cushions, fill- 
ed with the downy fluff of 
bull-rushes, as a _ lovely 
‘‘raven-haired,’’ maiden 
spoke softly to me. With the 
warmth within the teepee, 
one could smell the sweet 
odors, of the wooden poles 
with their bark. 

The hands of the women 
within the circle, were 
“‘ever-busy.’’ Some were sew- 
ing on moose-hide vests, as 
others were doing the 
beautiful ‘‘bead-work,’’ 
designs. They needed no 
bright lights, or glasses, as 
their hands knew the way. 
These people followed the 
ways of the Great 
‘*Maniteau,’’ with their 
hearts and spirits. They asked 


‘Come to my teepee;I will show you my fire!’ 


ithe ‘‘Great Master’’ first for 
success at whatever they did. 
The people of these teepees 
‘were seldom ill. They knew 
jevery herb and its purpose. 
‘The aspirin we now have wae 
in the red willow. The ‘‘red 
willow” outer bark, made 
“kinikinuk’’ (a mixture of 
tobacco and dried red willow 
bark shredded finely). 

_ When a “ 
born, its tiny back and bot- 
tom nestled into a special soft 
dried moss. After being fed, 
it was laced into a softly-lined 
board, covered with hide, 
then hung up, shade of a tree 
to be rocked gently as 
| ‘*Mama’’ did her daily tasks. 
These papooses never suf- 
fered diaper rash. That 
special moss was soft, (after 
it was well dried) and even 
healing. It was very absor- 
bent and used for sanitary 
purposes as well. The fluff 
from a fully-matured 
bullrush top, was used on a 


papoose,’’ was | 


frost-bitten area. It fills my wish again to hear ... ‘‘Come 
soul with a great into my teepee ... I will show 
peacefullness to have seen you my firel’’ 


\these times, now past, but I

see his teepee, a friend who went long ago to the great

NEW CHURCH GATE 

A very nice new gate has 
been installed in the driveway 


But what’s on lagoon? 
Cubs go to town hall 


GIBBONS - Some younger 
citizens of Gibbons took time 
out last Wednesday night to 
observe the inner workings of 
the town first hand by atten- 
ding a council meeting. 

The group of 21 boys, aged 
eight to 10 years, were part of 
the First Gibbons Cub Pack. 
Leader David Blais, known 
as Akela, explained that the 
trip was part of the boy’s 
badgework, teaching them 
how their community works. 

The group meets weekly, 
but once a month goes out on 
‘“‘rambles’’ because another 
group has the hall booked. 
They’ve been to several 
places in town, and town 
council and the fire hall were 
on the agenda for that night. 

After about 15 minutes, 


assistant leader Ken Gay, also 
known as Bageera, moved the 
boys out the door for a short 
walk to the fire hall. Two of 
the cubs, Scott Empson, 9, 
and Darcy Abell, 10, stayed 
around just long enough to 
describe their experience. 

Both felt they had learned 
how their community is run, 
as well as different events 
happening on special dates, 
but Darcy was a little perplex- 
ed about the sewage lagoon. 

“I didn’t know about it 
and I don’t even know where 
it is,”’ he said. 

Once Mr, Blais explained 
what it was used for and 
where it. was located, he 
wrinkled his nose and walked 
out. He may have been sorry 
he asked.

Surprise party for Katie Davis 


By Hazel Martin 


Fifty-four members, 
relatives and guests gathered 
at the Namao Hall Thursday 
afternoon when Namao 60 
Plus Club entertained a sur- 
prise party for Mrs. Katie 
Davis’ 90th birthday on 
November 15th. Katie’s real 
birthday is November 29th 
but in order to keep the sur- 
prise ‘60 Plus’’ chose their 


After games and cards 
Mrs. Bertha Speers, the first 
President of the 60 Plus 
Club, presented a bouquet of 
red carnations and white 
mums to the honored guest. 
In her speech Mrs. Speers 
told us that she had known 
her friend, Katie Davis, for 
75 years and had gone to the 
old log Namao school with 
her. 

Katie Bourson (Davis) had 
come to the Namao district in 
1900 with her family, and has 
lived in the Namao district 
ever since; with the exception 
of the six years she spent in 
Edmonton when her late hus- 
band, Frank Davis, was a pa- 
tient in the Norwood Exten- 
sive Care Hospital. She has 
her little house on the farm of 
her son and daughter-in-law, 
Roy and Babe Davis, does all 
her own work, cooks and still 
bakes bread. She is a talented 
needle-woman, and many 
friends and her family 
treasure the beautiful pieces 
of Hardanger from her nim- 
ble fingers. 

Katie has three sons: 
Leonard of Kelowna, B.C., 
Roy and Marshall of Namao, 
four grandchildren and six 
great grandchildren. 

The birthday cake was in- 
scribed Happy Birthday 
Mom, and was a gift from 


Roy and Babe Davis. It was 
cut by Mrs. Gladys McLay, 
who carried it around to the 
guests who were served by 
Mrs. Davis. Both Gladys and 
Vi. Samis are to be com- 
plimented on the lovely lunch 
they prepared and served, 
assisted by Mrs. Betty Samis. 

Mr. Lawrence Rye, our 
most senior member at 96 
years, was brought by his son 
Elmer to help his old friend, 
Katie, celebrate her birthday, 
and had the honor of being at 
her table during lunch. 


All the guests joined in 
singing Happy Birthday and 
Auld Lang Syne. We all wish 
her many more happy bir- 
thdays, and hope we will be 
there to help her celebrate. 


The Namao U.C.W, met at 
the home of Mrs. Dorothy 
Stanton, 74 Lancaster Cres- 
cent, St. Albert, on 
November 14 at 1:30 p.m. 
with 18 members out for the 
last meeting of the year.

Community support 
needed at Horse Hill 


By Esther Wallbank 

A special meeting of the 
Community League was held 
on Monday evening, 
November 12 at the home of 
President, Harold Witham , 
with 21 people present. There 
has been an apparent 
decrease in interest in and 
support of the Community 
League, to the extent that one 
meeting could not be held as 
there were not enough people 
present to form a quorum, 
and this was a cause for con- 


cern. 

It was decided that this 
meeting would take the place 
of the regular November 
meeting so there will be no 
meeting on November 27. As 
there will be no meeting in 


December, the next meeting 
will be the annual meeting on 
January 22. 

It was decided at the 
November 12th meeting to 
try having only four meetings 
a year and to combine 
business and pleasure by hav- 
ing a social part to each 
meeting. A telephone com- 
mittee will be set up and 
members will be encouraged 
to inform new neighbours, or 
those who do not have 
children in Horse Hill 
School, as to community ac- 
tivities. 


Congratulations to Elena 
and Frank Robinson who 
recently celebrated their 25th 
wedding anniversary.
